What Does GRIN Stand For?

GRIN stands for Graded Index

GRIN, or Graded Index, refers to a type of optical fiber or lens system where the refractive index of the material varies gradually with distance from the center. This design allows for improved light transmission and reduced signal loss, making GRIN fibers particularly effective in telecommunications and imaging applications. By minimizing modal dispersion, GRIN technology enhances the performance and efficiency of optical devices.
