Single-Frequency Fiber Lasers
Optoelectronics and fiber optics technology experienced significant advances in the 1990s, driven largely by well-funded innovation in the telecommunications, semiconductor and consumer electronics sectors. Although some of these sectors have since lost momentum, the trickle-down effect for other photonic applications markets has continued and, in some cases, accelerated. Fiber optic sensors, for example, have achieved enhanced performance by integrating improvements in fiber, laser and...
