This article is an
outline, a type of article that presents a list of articles or sub-topics related to its subject in a hierarchical form. For the standardized set of outlines on Wikipedia, see Wikipedia:Contents/Outlines. Outlines are within the scope of WikiProject Outlines, a collaborative effort to improve outlines on Wikipedia. For guidance on building and maintaining outlines, see

Do not remove the elements, but rather strike the text as they becomes useless or irrelevant (i.e write
text to be struck) to indicate that this element was verified and found to be alright.
fiber and guided wave devices: covered under fiber optics, right?
Also, look at Category:Applied and interdisciplinary physics for more stuff

List of "Institutions/organizations"
Presently lists only applied physics institutions with their own wikipedia pages (see edit by 朝彦). In keeping with
WP:NOTCATALOG, would it be better to eliminate this list entirely? I'm not sure, but it does seem that such a list is prone to self-interested additions.

Quick explanation of Wikipedia outlines
"
Outline" is short for "hierarchical outline". There are two types of outlines: sentence outlines (like those you made in school to plan a paper), and topic outlines (like the topical synopses that professors hand out at the beginning of a college course). Outlines on Wikipedia are primarily topic outlines that serve 2 main purposes: they provide taxonomical classification of subjects showing what topics belong to a subject and how they are related to each other (via their placement in the
tree structure), and as subject-based tables of contents linked to topics in the encyclopedia. The hierarchy is maintained through the use of heading levels and indented bullets. See
Wikipedia:Outlines for a more in-depth explanation.
