MCQ - 112-10579

Question:

Which of the following phenomena is used to confine the light within the core of a simple optical fiber?

  1. Photoelectric effect
  2. Refraction
  3. Total internal reflection
  4. Refraction

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

Total internal reflection is a phenomenon that happens when a propagating wave strikes a medium boundary at an angle larger than a particular critical angle with respect to the normal to the surface. If the refractive index is lower on the other side of the boundary and the incident angle is greater than the critical angle, the wave cannot pass through and is entirely reflected. The critical angle is the angle of incidence above which the total internal reflectance occurs.
