Time Lens Allows for Ultrafast Optical Signals

Speeding up optical signals is usually a very costly process that involves a number of bulky machines, as well as a huge amount of energy. In a research meant to find ways of getting past this obstacle in development, experts at the Cornell University have recently developed a new, silicon-ba... [ read more >> ]

This silicon chip, called a time lens, is patterned with waveguides that split optical signals and combine them with laser light to speed data rates
