As fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) networks have widely spread, people are increasingly benefiting from data communication services through the use of the Internet and mobile devices. Fiber optic networks, connected throughout the world, fundamentally support the transmission of large amounts of data, ...
If you’re wondering why Google Fiber isn’t available everywhere yet, or gigabit Internet in general for that matter, it mostly has to do with your areas Internet network infrastructure. Only a handful of cities in the U.S. are wired up for fiber optics, which means there’s only so m...
reviews different types of cantilever-based optical fiber interferometers including fiber-top cantilevers, ferrule-top cantilevers, and other cantilevers. The operation principle of cantilevers was described. The structural characteristics, fabrication methods, materials, and sensing applications of each ...
Additionally, trends like the Internet of Things or industry 4.0 create new demands in monitoring the parameters of the manufacturing processes, especially in chemical industries [3], giving also an opportunity to new gas sensing devices to be applied in these areas for the first time. The ...
