Difference between Photonic-crystal fiber and Waveguide

Photonic-crystal fiber vs. Waveguide

Photonic-crystal fiber (PCF) is a new class of optical fiber based on the properties of photonic crystals. A waveguide is a structure that guides waves, such as electromagnetic waves or sound, with minimal loss of energy by restricting expansion to one dimension or two.

Similarities between Photonic-crystal fiber and Waveguide

Photonic-crystal fiber and Waveguide have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bragg's law, Optical fiber, Polarization (waves), Refractive index, Total internal reflection.

Bragg's law

In physics, Bragg's law, or Wulff–Bragg's condition, a special case of Laue diffraction, gives the angles for coherent and incoherent scattering from a crystal lattice.

Optical fiber

An optical fiber or optical fibre is a flexible, transparent fiber made by drawing glass (silica) or plastic to a diameter slightly thicker than that of a human hair.

Polarization (waves)

Polarization (also polarisation) is a property applying to transverse waves that specifies the geometrical orientation of the oscillations.

Refractive index

In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.

Total internal reflection

Total internal reflection is the phenomenon which occurs when a propagated wave strikes a medium boundary at an angle larger than a particular critical angle with respect to the normal to the surface.

Photonic-crystal fiber and Waveguide Comparison

Photonic-crystal fiber has 23 relations, while Waveguide has 90. As they have in common 5, the Jaccard index is 4.42% = 5 / (23 + 90).
