Infinira launches an optical solution for 1.6 Tbps ICE-D data centers

The latest expansion of the European Space Agency's laboratory is essentially portable: this European Space Agency's mobile optical ground station is housed in a standard container and can be transported throughout Europe as needed for laser based optical communication with satellites - including NASA's Psyche mission, in space millions of kilometers away.The station has officially become a part o...

The attosecond level ultra short laser pulse provides a powerful method for detecting and imaging ultra short processes, such as the motion of electrons in atoms and molecules.Although ultra short laser pulses can be generated, generating ultra short and high-energy pulses is a continuous challenge. In order to expand the photon energy, photon flux, and continuous bandwidth of isolated attosecond ...

CU Boulder published a study in Optical Letters demonstrating a new high-speed laser guidance method for imaging applications, using a fluid scanner built around an electrowetting prism to replace traditional mechanical components."Most laser scanners today use mechanical mirrors to steer beams of light," said Darwin Quiroz from CU Boulder."Our approach replaces that with a transmissive, non-mecha...

Recently, NASA's official website showed that a research team at the University of Central Florida has tested an instrument called Ejecta STORM, which aims to measure the size and velocity of surface particles generated by exhaust gases from rocket powered landers on the moon or Mars.According to NASA, when a spacecraft lands on the moon or Mars, rocket exhaust plumes can produce efflorescent ejec...

Recently, Professor Nie Mingming from the Key Laboratory of Fiber Optic Sensing and Communication at the School of Information and Communication Engineering, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, in collaboration with the University of Colorado Boulder, published a research paper titled "Cross polarized stimulated Brillouin scattering empowered photonics" in the top internation...
