9. What are Polarization Maintaining Fibers? Fiber Optics Tutorial Series 6 March 31, 2008 :: What is polarization? Light waves consist of oscillating electric and magnetic fields. These two fields are perpendicular to each other and to the direction of light traveling. We call the electric field plane as the light's polarization. Sunlight and many other ordinary light is made of many light waves, each with their electric and magnetic fields oriented randomly. If all waves' electric fields were aligned parallel to each other, we call this light linearly polarized. :: Polarization's effect on optical fibers Polarization does not really matter in multimode fibers b...

10. Wallpaper: Basic Wallpapering Steps March 11, 2008 So you’ve prepared your walls and planned the best sequence of application. Now you are ready to get down to the basic procedure of wallpapering. Don’t forget that no home has walls that are exactly vertical. For the best looking wall covering, your paper needs to be hung on a plumb line. A plumb line is one that is exactly perpendicular to the floor. You can measure this by making your own plumb line tool. Just take a length of string line, rub it with a piece of chalk, and attach a small weight to the end of it. Thumbtack the other end to the top of the wall. Let the plumb bob (the sma... (read more) Author: Carlo Morelli

11. LCD Monitors - Best Choice of PC Users December 27, 2007 A liquid crystal display or LCD monitor is a thin, flat device which is made up of a number of pixels arranged in front of a reflector. Each pixel of a LCD consists of a layer of molecules that are aligned between two transparent electrodes. There are also two polarising filters that are aligned perpendicular to each other. When a voltage is applied across the electrodes, a torque aligns the liquid crystal molecules parallel to the electric field. Light can be made to pass through in varying amounts by controlling the voltage applied across the liquid crystal layer in each pixel. In colour LC... (read more) Author: Jayson Pablo

12. The CNC Milling Process November 14, 2007 CNC milling finds application making a wide range of custom parts. CNC milling is a cutting process in which material is removed from a block metal or plastic by a rotating tool. In CNC milling the cutting tool (called a “mill”) is moved in all three dimensions to cut a desired shape from stock. In this process, the material is usually removed by both the end and the side of the cutting tool. Unlike a drill which removes material only from the end, in CNC milling the cutting tool rotates about an axis that is perpendicular to the table that holds the work. Cutting tools of various profile sha... (read more) Author: George Ure
