A consortium comprising Japan’s communications giant NTT and six R&D partners has demonstrated what it calls the world’s largest transmission capacity of 118.5 terabit/s over a multi-core fiber with ...

Despite the modern world relying heavily on digital optical communication, there has not been a significant improvement in the minimum attenuation—a measure of the loss of optical power per kilometer ...

A team of Microsoft-backed researchers has unveiled a new type of hollow core optical fiber that promises unprecedented speed and lower latency for the internet. This breakthrough was published this ...

When a spectrometer is being configured for a given experiment, one of the commonly overlooked considerations is in selecting the best fiber optic cable. While there are many different factors to ...

...while Airguide Photonics hollow-core fiber development achieves “record-low” propagation losses. WDM expands capacity allowing petabit-rate transmission. Researchers from the Network Research ...

Data travels across the cloud mainly as light via optical fibers made from solid glass. But that light—and thus that data—travels faster through air. “With hollow core fiber, the glass [has] an air ...

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 ...
