His idea was to build a ceiling lamp that didn’t bask the room with light, but rather one that reproduced the peaceful twinkle of the night sky. He covered a wooden table with dark fabric and ...

The Scalable Hydrogel-clad Ionotronic Nickel-core Electroluminescent (SHINE) fiber is flexible, emits visible light, and can self-repair after being severed, restoring most of its initial brightness.

Scientists are revolutionizing optical communication with a cutting-edge semantic transmission system that vastly improves ...

The $38 million fiber project connects 52 schools across the region, offering students and educators some of the fastest internet speeds available.

Over the years, several waveguides and structured materials have been developed to preserve linear and circular polarization over long distances and analyze these states with a sufficient degree of ...

The technology comes from Taara, which has been using light beams to deliver high-speed internet without relying on ...

The effects can be interesting; we had no idea comms-grade fiber could leak as much light through the cladding as this, and the bend-radius limits are pretty dramatically illustrated. [Les] teases ...
