Abstract

There is no doubt that telecommunication has played a crucial role in the makeup of the modern world. Without the telecommunication revolution and the electronic foundations behind it, the modern life would be unimaginable. It is not hard to imagine why this is the case, after all, it is communication that shapes us as human beings and makes the world intelligible to us. Our daily life is intricately intertwined with telecommunication and its manifestations. While we are driving, we call our friend who is traveling on the other side of the world. We can watch events live as they are unfolding in another continent. We buy something in Australia and our credit card account is charged in United States. We send and receive emails with all kinds of attachments in a fraction of second. In short, under the effects of instant telecommunications, the world is shrinking from isolated lands separated by vast oceans to an interconnected global village.

Fußnoten
1
Although it must be said that Plato always talks through other characters, most notably Socrates. So we should be careful in assigning a view to Plato directly.
 
2
In fact, the four equations that are commonly known as Maxwell’s equations are more properly called Maxwell–Heaviside, as their current formulation is due to Oliver Heaviside. Maxwell’s own formulation was much more cumbersome [8].
 
3
Technically these relationships hold only for linear, homogenous materials. More complex forms of constitutive relations must be used for more exotic materials.
 
4
Technically, we should add a subscript z to k and denote it as k z as a reminder of the fact that it is the z component of the wave vector k , and that the wave vector in general has other components as well. However, to keep the notation simple, we will drop the z subscript whenever we are only interested in propagation along the z direction.
 
5
An electron-Volt (eV) is the energy needed to move an electron up a potential barrier of 1 volt. We remember that increasing the potential of a charge of 1 Coulomb by 1 Volt requires 1 Joule. Thus, 1 eV is 1.60×10− 19 J, because the electron charge is 1.60×10− 19 C.
 
6
To be more accurate, multi-mode transmission of light can be understood in terms of total internal reflection. However, single-mode transmission requires the wave theory of light. We will discuss this point in Chapter 5.
 
7
Later in this chapter we will discuss the decibel unit of power.
