Application of optical fibers to the transmission of solar radiation
Daisuke Kato,Takashi Nakamura +1 more
TL;DR: The application of optical fibers to the transmission of solar radiation is discussed in this article, where it is shown that fused-silica-core optical fibers transmit solar radiation effectively over distances of about 40 m.

Concentrated and piped sunlight for indoor illumination
TL;DR: It is argued that using sunlight directly for indoor illumination would be about twenty-five times more cost-effective than using sunlight to generate electricity with solar cells for powering electric lamps for indoor lighting.

Low loss poly(methyl methacrylate‐d5) core optical fibers
TL;DR: In this article, a low loss plastic optical fiber (POF) with poly(methyl methacrylate−d5) core and fluorinated alkyl methcrylate copolymer cladding with attenuation losses of 41 and 55 dB/km at wavelengths of 565 and 646 nm, respectively, was presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Recent Developments In Plastic Optical Fibers And Applications For Automotive Use
TL;DR: In this article, the optical characteristics and physical properties of POF, which include the heat resistant type POF are described. And the applications for POF in the automotive industry, such as ribbon illuminators and optical taps for data transmission links, are also described.
