Scientists have demonstrated a new fiber-optic sensing method that detects strain and displacement by reading interference ...

Providing cost-optimized, best-in-class power consumption of <10W for 800G short reach links in datacenters and AI/ML cluster applications. The active optical cable market is projected to be $19 ...

Australian-US team says wavefront-shaping of input light lifts power threshold for SBS scattering by an order of magnitude. Optical scientists have found a new way to significantly increase the power ...

I have some corning fiber optic cable that is run in my building that I am trying to get the exact specs on - ONFR means it is Optical fiber, non-conductive riser and is a type of indoor cabling ...

Researchers have devised a novel technique to 'flip' the optical wavefront of an image for both polarizations simultaneously, so that it can be transmitted through a multimode fiber without distortion ...

A new type of optical fiber filled with nothing but thin air has been found to be particularly effective for carrying out quantum key distribution (QKD), a security protocol that is in principle ...

Once a month or so, I have the privilege of sitting down with Editor-in-Chief Elliot Williams to record the Hackaday Podcast. It’s a lot of fun spending a couple of hours geeking out together, and we ...
