Recent advances in 40-Gbit/second optical and electronic technologies suggest that service providers may soon be able to harvest those technologies to lower costs and to speed provisioning. Crucial to ...

The development of metasurfaces opened a horizon for the advance of planar optics. Among various metadevices, the metalens has attracted widespread attention for practical applications in imaging and ...

Light travels at different speeds based on the medium it passes through. For example, in a vacuum, it travels at 3.0 × 10^8 m/s in a straight line. But when directed towards glass, air, diamond, water ...

Infinite bandwidth is a term often used to describe the capacity of fiber-optic networks. It’s an exciting concept even though it doesn’t exist in reality. Bandwidth allocation has long been used to ...

As the demand for bandwidth and high-speed transport grows, so does the use of fiber-optic based transport. One of the enabling technologies associated with optical transport are Fiber Bragg gratings ...

A research team recently demonstrated active manipulation of chromatic dispersion, achieving achromatic focusing within a designated broadband. The development of metasurfaces opened a horizon for the ...
