Much of our electronics could soon be replaced by photonics, in which beams of light flitting through microscopic channels on a silicon chip replace electrons in wires. |
The company is truly high-tech, making complex laser machines that cut silicon and wafers for chipmakers and photonics companies. |
A special symposium on photonics time and frequency metrology focused on the control and use of mode-locked lasers in producing frequency combs. |
The recent advances in silicon photonics make it possible to integrate the entire digitizer on a silicon chip, leading to a compact and low-cost solution. |
Further, advances in photonics and additional fiber deployment appear to allow for a doubling of network capacity each year for the next decade. |
It aims to develop technologies across a wide range of disciplines including superconductivity, nanotechnology, data storage, photonics and power electronics. |
