Why not take the same strands of light that already power the world’s fiber-optic cables and let them travel freely through ...

Scientists have turned a long-standing sci‑fi idea into working hardware, using pure light to move data wirelessly through the air instead of relying on radio waves or copper traces. The result is a ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Science; DOI 10.29026/oes.2023.220025 considers specialty optical fibers for advanced sensing applications. Optical fiber technology has changed the world in ...

Researchers have successfully demonstrated the transport of two-photon quantum states of light through a phase-separated Anderson localization optical fiber. Invented in 1970 by Corning Incorporated, ...

Scientists have transmitted quantum and conventional internet data through the same fiber-optic channel, meaning a future quantum internet could theoretically use existing infrastructure. When you ...
