Ending a year in which it celebrated its fifth birthday, the Innovative Optical and Wireless Network project releases details ...

Find out CPO’s 2025 scorecard and what lies ahead for this optical interconnect technology in 2026 and beyond.

As network architectures strain under the combined weight of cloud growth, AI acceleration, and rising power constraints, ...

Feedback refers to a core concept in circuit design and control theory, used to stabilize amplifiers and control system ...

Continuing our look at the work of the IOWN project, we find out what use cases the next evolved generation of the infrastructure will support and which firms are likely to gain.

What will optical communications be capable of in the next decade? Transmission of 10 Tbit s −1 over a single fibre and a reconfigurable transparent network are two possibilities. The second is the ...

The velocity of light in vacuum, c, is approximately 3 × 10 8 m s −1, fast enough to make 7.5 round-the-world trips in a single second, and to move a distance of 300 mm in 1 ns. This ultrahigh speed ...

Abstract: A photonic system including the power-over-fiber powering of a silicon-on-insulator $1 \times 2$ thermo-optic switch based on a Mach-Zehnder structure was designed, and a prototype was ...

Abstract: Optical transceivers form the backbone of our ICT infrastructure and are required to transport ever-growing capacities in ever-shrinking energy and density footprints. In this tutorial, CMOS ...
