                    [Title] => UP physics institute beefs up research on fiber optics
                    [Summary] => A University of the Philippines (UP) institute is now gearing up its fiber optic research and development (R&D) efforts to provide innovations in optical components for the communication, information technology (IT), and semiconductor industry.


The thrust is being pursued by the UP Diliman-National Institute of Physics (NIP) in recognition of the demand for faster, flexible, more reliable, and cost-effective telecommuni-cations systems.

First, some explanation of terms:

• Photonic fiber refers to either optical or photonic crystal fibers.

No, these are not negative terms.

They are advanced technologies now being used to boost agricultural production (notably rice) in Western Visayas, particularly Iloilo.

ASAR stands for advanced synthetic aperture radar while MERIS means medium resolution imaging spectrometer.

ASAR can monitor land surface properties, soil moisture and wetland extent, deforestation, desertification, and natural hazards.
