Question

The inner part of the fibre optics which carries light is called________.

Answer 1

Optical Fibres:

1. Optical fibres are fibres that can transmit data using light pulses.
2. The fibers are designed to facilitate the propagation of light depending on the requirement of power and distance of transmission.
3. The optical fibers work on the principle of ‘Total Internal Reflection.’
4. An optical fiber generally consists of three concentric elements, the core, the cladding, and the outer coating, often called the buffer.
   
5. The inner part of the fibre, called the core, is usually made of glass or plastic.
6. The core is the light-carrying portion of the fibre.

Thus, the inner part of the fibre optics which carries light is called core.
