As data rates in optical networks increase, designers need to pay increasing attention to peculiarities in the fiber-optic medium.One of the most important of these peculiarities is dispersion, ...

Researchers at the Wellman Center for Photomedicine have demonstrated that wavelength-dependent changes in the spatial distribution of light transmitted through a multimode optical fiber are not ...

A good dose of electronic dispersion compensation will open your eyes to 10 Gb/s Ethernet's possibilities. Because the wiring plant represents a large part of a network's cost, achieving higher data ...

As the demand for bandwidth and high-speed transport grows, so does the use of fiber-optic based transport. One of the enabling technologies associated with optical transport are Fiber Bragg gratings ...

Imagine a computer that does not rely only on electronics but uses light to perform tasks faster and more efficiently. A collaboration between two research teams from Tampere University in Finland and ...
