Researchers have built a microscopic 3D-printed optical device that funnels light from 37 separate multimode semiconductor lasers into a single optical fiber, merging 222 distinct spatial modes; the ...

Researchers in Israel have created a microscopic optical device that could simplify high-power laser ...

Researchers have developed a microscopic 3D-printed optical device that can efficiently combine light from dozens of small semiconductor lasers into a single multimode optical fiber with very low loss ...

A previous CommScope blog post discussed the advantages and disadvantages of Angled Physical Contact (APC) and Ultra Physical Contact (UPC) connectors. At that time, the focus was on connectors for ...

Company says record-breaking result will contribute towards technology to support post-5G mobile communications. Japan's KDDI Research and Sumitomo Electric Industries have announced that their ...

I need about 5-10 meters, and the contractor doing the job never worked with fiber before so I need to provide my own pre-terminated cable. What should I look for in something that goes in the wall? I ...

Fiber technology has quietly enabled much of what we take for granted today, such as the internet, high-speed video and even mobile networks—all of which rely heavily on fiber backbones to ensure high ...

Fig. 1. Calculated correlation function for output signals of the unmodulated wavefront (blue solid line), the temperature principal mode (red solid line) and the temperature anti-principal mode ...

Fiber optics is a branch of optical technology that is concerned with the transmission of data as light impulses along a thin flexible glass or plastic fiber. There are two basic types of optical ...
