White light passing through a prism
Optical fibre bundle, computer artwork. The fibres are used to transmit sound and images in the form of light. They are usually made from flexible glass that has a high refractive index. Each fibre consists of a core (grey) with an outer protective layer (cladding, coloured) with a lower refractive index than the core. Light travelling through the fibre is contained within the core because of total internal reflection at the core/cladding boundary. This allows data to be transmitted over long distances with little or no absorption of light

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate beauty of white light passing through a prism, as depicted in a computer-generated print. The optical fibre bundle featured in this image serves as a conduit for transmitting both sound and images using the medium of light. Crafted from flexible glass with a high refractive index, these fibres consist of a core (depicted in grey) enveloped by an outer protective layer (coloured cladding). Notably, the cladding possesses a lower refractive index than the core. The ingenious principle behind this technology lies in total internal reflection at the boundary between the core and cladding. As light traverses through these fibres, it remains confined within the core due to this phenomenon. Consequently, data can be effectively transmitted over vast distances without significant absorption of light. This remarkable feat has revolutionized communication systems by enabling efficient data transmission across various domains such as telecommunications and digital networks. By harnessing fibre optics' capabilities, information can travel seamlessly through these slender strands while preserving its integrity. Through this visually striking illustration, we are reminded of humanity's relentless pursuit of technological advancements that continually push boundaries. It is an ode to our ability to manipulate natural phenomena like light to enhance our lives and connect us on global scales—an awe-inspiring testament to human ingenuity captured beautifully by Science Photo Library's artistic representation.
