A new “frequency comb” optical chip design can transmit almost twice as much data as the entire Internet in a single second. A frequency comb is a masterfully precise laser composed of many distinct frequencies, or color wavelengths. The global Internet relies on fiber optic technology which must have massive data transmission capacity. In new …

See through the ideal MMFs. From left to right, the panels in each row display digital simulations of the field/object/scene to be imaged (leftmost panel); the image formed in perfect MMF inversion, that is to say including the spatial filtering effects due to the limited modal capacity of the fiber, but not including any mode …

Multimode optical fibers (MMFs) are very thin strands of glass that are ubiquitous in light guiding applications. Their development has gone hand in hand with the enormous growth in the rapid transmission of information across the world. The small footprint of MMFs also makes them attractive candidates for next-generation microendoscopes, to provide optical microscopy deep …
The annual awards celebrate the best in photonics innovation in areas such as lasers, biomedical devices, augmented and virtual reality, and quantum. PITTSFIELD, Mass., Nov. 15, 2022 — Breakthrough technologies and companies ranging from exciting, emerging startups to longtime industry stalwarts are among this year’s finalists for the SPIE Prism Awards. The 24 companies, divided …
