Photonics researchers from Tampere University, Finland, and Kastler-Brossel Laboratory, France, have demonstrated how ...

Chinese researchers find a way to massively increase the throughput of fiber optics, the current highest-speed data ...

A thin strand of glass designed for light transmission. A single hair-thin optical fiber is capable of transmitting trillions of bits per second. In addition to their huge transmission capacity ...

In low-bandwidth applications, fiber optic cable transmits data using one color of light. There’s a way to get more bandwidth out of a fiber optic cable, as [Shahriar] found out while ...

At a fundamental level, these faculty research basic physical processes of light, including cross-polarization rotation, adiabatic wavelength conversion, and four-wave mixing. They investigate ...
