Abstract
Fibre light guides are used for long distance communication, for high power transmission with applications in engineering and medicine and for optical sensorics. Long distance optical communications make the most severe demands (low damping rate and high band width). The use of optical fibres as waveguides began when the technology for industrial production was introduced by Corning, USA in 1970.
