ABSTRACT:
An organ array comprises a plurality of optical fibers each cut to a different length with the differences between functionally adjacent (i.e., lengthwise consecutive) fibers being uniform. The fibers are arranged in a bundle so that one set of ends of the fibers is terminated in an input plane and the opposite set of ends is terminated in an output plane. Described are several embodiments utilizing the organ array including a passive spatial scanner, optical memory systems, an image converter, an optical sampling oscilloscope, and an x-y coordinate locater.
