Let’s think of the last time you sent data without wires. We’re not talking WiFi here, but plain optical signals. Free-space optical communication, or FSO, is an interesting and easy way to transmit ...

The circuit shown in the figure measures relative humidity in air at the low temperatures found in applications like cold storage of food items and greenhouses. Instead of using electrical signal ...

The Salience Labs 32-port all-optical circuit switch is an optical switching platform designed for AI data center networks, using photonic switching to connect GPUs across racks while reducing network ...

Researchers are working hard around the world to try and improve the speed available for data sharing. Microsoft Research and EPFL recently demonstrated ultrafast optical switching utilizing a ...

Expands OCS portfolio with R64 platform for lower port count applications Leverages Lumentum’s proven MEMS technology optimized for high reliability, performance, and scalability “The market reception ...

Salience Labs Limited, a leader in photonic solutions targeting connectivity for AI datacenter infrastructure, and Keysight ...

Optical waveguides are structures that guide and confine light within a small cross-sectional area. In nanophotonic circuits, waveguides are typically fabricated using high-refractive-index materials ...

Researchers from the University of Southampton (UK), and the Institut d'Optique in Bordeaux (France) have devised a new approach for controlling light in a silicon chip by bringing the concept of ...

With so much analog-circuit design being done by automated tools and circuit-performance analysis done with tools such as Spice, it may seem anachronistic to actually go through a basic circuit in ...

Researchers in Switzerland have made the world's smallest optical transistor ever from a single dye molecule. The device, which works by weakening or amplifying a "source" laser beam depending on the ...
