Fiber optics strain sensors characterization / Zaidah Zakaria

Photonic is the art and science of mastering light. It is the control, manipulation, transfer and storage of information using light. Nowadays, the photonic industries have been developed recently to become more competitive advantages and thus to fulfill those market needs. The photonics has a bright future because everyday people are dealing with photonics application. The device of photonic is deal with an optical fiber. The field of optical fiber has undergone tremendous growth and advancement over the last 25 years. Initially conceived as a medium to carry light and images for medical endoscopic-application, optical fibers were later proposed in the mid 1960's as an adequate information carrying medium for telecommunication applications.
