Comprised of judiciously engineered microscopic photonic structures with subwavelength features, the concepts of metasurface and metamaterials have proven fruitful results in the realm of meta-optics.

Polymer optical waveguides have emerged as a versatile and cost-effective platform for short-reach data links and board-level interconnects in high-performance electronic systems. Owing to their low ...

Often people working in optics and photonics confuse geometric optics with wave optics, but they aren’t the same thing! Geometric optics treats the propagation of light in terms of “rays”, where each ...

At the bottom of the ocean, optical fibers transmit telecommunications and internet data around the world. Waveguides make that feat possible by channeling and amplifying the light—and therefore the ...

Polymer optical waveguides in co-packaged optics could speed up AI training. On Dec. 9, IBM unveiled a breakthrough in co-packaging optics that could reduce GPU downtime and accelerate AI training.

Tower Semiconductor Ltd.’s (NASDAQ:TSEM) latest collaboration with NewPhotonics is a major step toward 6.4T applications, creating potential opportunities for higher-volume production linked with ...

As artificial intelligence systems swell into some of the largest computing infrastructures ever built, the optical fibers and photonic chips that carry their data are being packed together more ...

DigiLens, creators of waveguide optics, today announced a “deeper” partnership with Mitsubishi Chemical to bring a plastic version of its waveguide technology to the market. The companies claim the ...

Vuzix, the US-based producer of augmented reality (AR) smart glasses, says that its new optical waveguide manufacturing facility is up and running, with devices now being sampled. Located adjacent to ...

Researchers at the University of Toronto, led by Dr. Amr S. Helmy, have developed a new method for integrating electro-optic SiO2/ITO heterointerfaces into MIS structures. This breakthrough paves the ...
