Small, Optically-Driven Power Source

Abstract

Power transmitted along fiber-optic cables. Transmitted as infrared light along fiber-optic cable, converted to electricity to supply small electronic circuit. Power source and circuit remains electrically isolated from each other for safety or reduces electromagnetic interference. Array of diodes made by standard integrated-circuit techniques and packaged for mounting at end of fiber-optic cable.
