Eyeglasses, microscopes, and telescopes that allow us to see things more clearly, from extreme close ups to distant galaxies.

A large group of fiber optic lasers are powered by DC current. Laser drive is supplied by a current source with modulation added further along the signal path. The current source, although ...

Quantum dots with precise crystal growth and advanced processing enable compact, energy-efficient, and cost-effective light sources for optical fiber communications. (Nanowerk News) The National ...

It’s a rare person who can pick up a cheap laser pointer and not wield it like a lightsaber or a phaser, complete with sound effects. There’s just something about the “pew-pew” factor that makes ...

Russia is extending the range of its fiber-optic drones by using repeater drones, which act as intermediate station between ...
