• Parallel optical interface — A parallel optical interface is a form of fiber optic technology aimed primarily at communications and networking over relatively short distances (less than 300 meters), and at high bandwidths. Parallel optic interfaces differ from traditional… …   Wikipedia

• Optical interconnect — is a way of communication by optical cables.[1] Compared to traditional cables, optical wires are capable of a much higher bandwidth, from 10 Gb/s up to 100 Gb/s.[2] The technology is currently being introduced as a way to link computers to… …   Wikipedia

• Optical communication — is any form of telecommunication that uses light as the transmission medium. An optical communication system consists of a transmitter, which encodes a message into an optical signal, a channel, which carries the signal to its destination, and a… …   Wikipedia

• Optical fiber cable — A TOSLINK optical fiber cable with a clear jacket. These plastic fiber cables are used mainly for digital audio connections between devices. An optical fiber cable is a cable containing one or more optical fibers. The optical fiber elements are… …   Wikipedia

• Optical link — An optical link is a communications link that consists of a single end to end optical circuit. A cable of optical fiber, possibly concatenated into a dark fiber link, is the simplest form of an optical link. Other forms of optical link can… …   Wikipedia

• Optical transfection — is the process of introducing nucleic acids into cells using light. Typically, a laser is focussed to a diffraction limited spot ( 1 µm diameter) using a high numerical aperture microscope objective. The plasma membrane of a cell is then… …   Wikipedia

• Optical tweezers — (originally called single beam gradient force trap ) are scientific instruments that use a highly focused laser beam to provide an attractive or repulsive force (typically on the order of piconewtons), depending on the refractive index mismatch… …   Wikipedia

• Optical power meter — in use An optical power meter (OPM) is a device used to measure the power in an optical signal. The term usually refers to a device for testing average power in fiber optic systems. Other general purpose light power measuring devices are usually… …   Wikipedia
