ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for detecting rotation and a method for constructing the apparatus are provided. The apparatus comprises an optical fiber having a hollow passageway therethrough, a laser medium within the hollow passageway and interconnecting the first and second portions of the hollow passageway, and first and second electrodes contacting the laser medium such that when a voltage is applied across the first and second electrodes, the laser medium is excited such that the laser medium emits laser light through the hollow passageway.
