Prysmian has unveiled a new single-mode fiber optic cable with a coating diameter of 160 microns. According to the company, this is the first ...
Lightmatter, a Boston-based startup developing silicon photonics hardware aimed at AI and high-performance computing, has announced a 16-wavelength bidirectional Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing ...
High-power single-frequency fiber lasers with diffraction-limited spots are indispensable for a wide range of photonic applications and are particularly in advanced detection and sensing technologies.
The thought experiment began with a number. Single-mode fiber optics can now transmit data at 256 terabits per second over 200 kilometers. Based on that capacity, ...
John Carmack has a habit of tossing out ideas that sit right on the edge between practical engineering and pure provocation. His latest musing lands squarely in that zone: what if a long loop of ...
John Carmack considers fiber as an L2 cache for streaming AI data.
