radar and security as well as instrumentation applications is already in the millimeter-wave region or is expected to be extended into the millimeter-wave region within the next 5-10 years," explains the research group. "IPHOBAC will develop a new photonic...

to perform the modulation function. Extremely high modulation switching speeds are possible using this technology. Background While visiting an Intel campus in October, I was taken through a silicon photonics laboratory. I saw several projects underway, and...

they are still faced with particular limits. One such limit is that there is a maximum allowable distance between sender and receiver over a fiber optic cable, due to an increased loss of photons in the cable over increased cable length. Another limit includes...

The Times reports that all of the experiments were conducted with Scotch tape, manufactured by 3M. The scientists said exactly what’s going on the molecular scale to generate high-energy photons is unknown partly because the Scotch tape adhesive is a trade...

that space for free wideband internet.. The FCC wants to auction off unused "white space," but mandate some of that space for free wideband internet. Of course, the mention of "free internet" brings broadband and cell phone companies into full red alert, photon...
