Abstract

With inventions of ultra low loss glass fibers and reliable semiconductor lasers, the current choice for the telecommunication industry is lightwave technology which consists of many optical components. The reliability requirements of optical coatings used in such optical components of current and future lightwave telecommunication systems are presented in this paper.
