New type of unique frequency laser communications
Abstract
Optical fiber communications were developed. The single mode optical fiber was invented to transmit light beams with a unique frequency. The present existing multimode optical fiber which is used to transmit light beams with several frequencies may be replaced by such a single mode optical fiber. The development of a controllable solid state laser which can produce super pure unique frequency light beams is described.
