You might have heard about Optical Fibers, which are pliant, ductile, and crystal clear. These are made by drawing silica or plastic and are slightly thicker than a human hair. Metal fibers are preferably used for transmission in optical fiber communication because the movement of signals causes less damage. Drawn from silica or glass are known as Glass Optical Fibers and those drawn from plastic are known as Plastic Optical Fibers. Using these fibers is economical and cost-effective. These fibers have various properties. To check your knowledge on Optical Fibers and Their Properties, try out this trivia quiz!
