"In this study, we have developed a single-photon light source using an optical fiber material doped with optically active RE elements. Our experiments also reveal that such a source can be ...

As fast as modern electronics have become, they could be much faster if their operations were based on light, rather than ...

Tailoring the light propagating from optical fibers is potentially a key aspect of multiple photonics applications, especially if the light can be shaped at the point it emerges from the fiber rather ...

During optical transmission (usually by a laser or light-emitting diode) distortions in a fiber can cause the information to degrade as it moves between sender and receiver. “The challenge was to ...

"We utilize a single optical fiber to mimic the computational power of numerous neural networks," explains Prof. Chemnitz. "By leveraging the unique physical properties of light, this system will ...

These aragonite crystals are arranged in micron-sized tubes that function like fiber-optic cables, guiding light with exceptional precision, while filtering out harmful ultraviolet radiation that ...

The light-emitting microstructure is based on a piece of hollow-core optical fiber several centimeters long, with a 0.25 millimeter inner diameter and a 0.5 millimeter outer diameter. A polymer ...
