Definition, Inventors, & Facts
Fiber optics, the science of transmitting data, voice, and images by the passage of light through thin, transparent fibers. In telecommunications, fiber optic technology is used to link computers within local area networks. Fiber optics is also the basis of the fiberscopes used in examining internal parts of the body.

Scientists Made Working Fiber Optic Cables Out of Wood
Given how quickly technology advances and becomes outdated, there’s a good reason to develop electronics from materials that will break down and biodegrade when discarded, instead of filling up landfills for centuries. So researchers in Finland found a way to make functional fiber optics from wood-based fibers, that, when disposed of, will break down all on its own.
how does a fiber_optic_cable work?
by VIKAS DAYAL • January 28, 2020 If you ever heard or used the expression, “bouncing off the walls,” you’re ahead of the game in understanding how fiber optic cable works. Essentially, fiber optic cable uses a tiny tube, about the diameter of a human hair, made out of very pure glass. This hair-thin tube, or “core,” of the cable is inside another glass tube called the “cladding.” Electronic signals, encoded by a transmitter into bursts of light, travel down the inner tube…
