In a previous Broadcast Engineering article (“Understanding blocking capacitor effects,” August 2011), I mentioned that one of the first tasks in my broadcast engineer career was to work on optical-to ...

Australian-US team says wavefront-shaping of input light lifts power threshold for SBS scattering by an order of magnitude. A narrowband laser beam shaped by a spatial light modulator excites many ...

This white paper discusses how Avago Technologies can enable 40 Gb/s links up to distances of 550 m when paired with the latest generation of enhanced bandwidth multimode optical fiber. It also ...

A world record transmission of 1 petabit per second in a multimode optical fiber increases the current record data rate in multimode optical fibers by more than 2.5 times. Wideband optical ...

Many electricians have broadened their work model in recent years to include coaxial and Ethernet wiring for communications and data networks. This is usually seen as a good move, given the fact that ...

Multimode fiber (MMF) consists of a light-guiding core embedded in a cladding with a diameter of typically only 125 µm, about the thickness of a human hair. Unlike single mode fiber, which has a core ...

Company says record-breaking result will contribute towards technology to support post-5G mobile communications. Japan's KDDI Research and Sumitomo Electric Industries have announced that their ...

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 ...

At OFC, NTT Photonics Laboratories unveiled optical fiber that functions as both multi-mode and single-mode optical fiber, eliminating the need for expensive upgrades and reducing fiber management and ...
