Despite the modern world relying heavily on digital optical communication, there has not been a significant improvement in the minimum attenuation—a measure of the loss of optical power per kilometer ...
Researchers from the University of Southampton in the U.K. have teamed up with fiber engineers from Microsoft Azure to reduce attenuation in optical cables, where weakened signal power leads to data ...
New design will allow cabled fiber to be bent around very sharp turns with virtually no signal loss Optical fiber based on technology dubbed nanoStructures by developer Corning (Corning, NY) promises ...
