When optical beams comprising photons tend to travel via fibers, they lead to vibrations that produce acoustic waves, consisting of phonons.
Considerable progress for drug discovery, industrial processes, and optoelectronics could be yielded by engineering novel molecules and materials with specific properties.
The Japan Prize Foundation announced the winners of the 2023 Japan prize at 13:00 today, 30 January 2023 (JST).
Researchers have developed a new all-optical method for driving multiple highly dense nanolaser arrays. The approach could enable chip-based optical communication links that process and move data faster than today’s electronic-based devices.
Optical fibre switches will play an ever-increasing role in future network deployments for routing, protection, bypass, remote monitoring, sensing, and testing, used in data traffic routing, and cross connects with the future potential of wavelength routing.
As far as light-guiding applications are concerned, multimode optical fibers (MMFs) are known to be hair-thin strands of glass that are universal.
Teledyne FLIR is hosting a free Webinar to discuss how to prevent energy losses and combat rising energy costs with thermal imaging cameras on the Nov 24, 2022 at 2 pm CET
In an article published in the journal Aerospace, researchers achieved real-time monitoring of strains and structural displacements for the target Joined-Wing aircraft via Fiber Optic Sensing System (FOSS).
An interdisciplinary team of researchers was able to optimize an optical glass fiber for the first time, facilitating extremely precise focus of light with various wavelengths.
A study published in Photonics offers a new perspective on the localization of light in the core of solid-core micro-structured optical fibers, the effect of orbital and spin parts of the Poynting vector (energy flow), and singularities arising in it.
