Charles & George Hockham coauthored the defining paper that started the optical fibre communication revolution ("Dielectric-fibre surface waveguide for optical frequencies", by KCKao & GAHockham, Published in the Proceedings of the IEE). See www.goforich.co.uk Added commentary by Richard Epworth

Professor Charles Kuen Kao (born 4 November 1933) is a Chinese pioneer in the use of fiber optics in telecommunications. Kao, widely regarded as the "Father of Fiber Optic Communications", was awarded half of the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physics for "groundbreaking achievements concerning the transmission of light in fibers for optical communication". In early 1960s in STL, along with George Hockham, Kao did his pioneering work in the realisation of fiber optics as a telecommunications medium, by demonstrating that the high-loss of existing fiber optics arose from impurities in the glass, rather than from an underlying problem with the technology itself. Kao did not only consider the optical physics but also the material properties. The results were first presented by Kao in early 1966 and further published in June. This study first theorized and proposed to use glass fibers to implement optical communication, the ideas (especially structural features and materials) described largely are the basis of today's optical fiber communication. In 1965, Kao concluded that the fundamental limitation for glass light attenuation is below 20 db/km (Decibels per Kilometer, is a measure of the attenuation of a signal over a distance), which is a key threshold value for optical communications. However, at the time of this determination, optical fibers commonly exhibited light loss as high as 1000 db/km and even more. This conclusion opened the intense race to find low-loss materials and ...
