A device smaller than a grain of dust may help unlock the kind of quantum computers people have only dreamed about. Built on ...

Optical isolation and nonreciprocal devices are pivotal components in modern photonic systems, ensuring unidirectional light propagation and safeguarding sensitive equipment from unwanted reflections.

Recently, a research team led by Academician Lijun Wang at CIOMP under UCAS has systematically reviewed the latest ...

Researchers have developed a new 3D printing method called blurred tomography that can rapidly produce microlenses with commercial-level optical quality. The new method may make it easier and faster ...

In the realm of general relativity, black holes are well-known for their ability to trap light and matter by bending spacetime, creating a point of no return. While black holes have fascinated ...

All-optical modulation technology is considered an emerging research field that may have a significant impact in the future. As compared to the conventional electrical modulation technology, the most ...

Kerry Vahala and collaborators from UC Santa Barbara have found a unique solution to an optics problem. When we last checked in with Caltech's Kerry Vahala three years ago, his lab had recently ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NTT Corporation (NTT, Head office: Chiyoda-ku Tokyo; President & CEO: Akira Shimada) has developed a digital coherent signal processing circuit and optical device that achieves ...

A new "lensless" device could help, as it uses light to instantly detect harmful microorganisms. Usually, in order to check drinking water for bacteria, a sample of that water must be cultured in a ...

A new technical paper titled “Hybrid silicon all-optical switching devices integrated with two-dimensional material” was published by researchers at RIKEN, National Institute of Advanced Industrial ...

Between 2024 and 2030, the optical satellite communication (OSC) market will expand rapidly across terminals, devices, ground systems, and service applications, says Yole, this reflects both the ...
