3+ day, 1+ hour ago   (236+ words) A new optical chip technology from Kyocera and Tohoku University could help solve a growing problem in high-speed data centers by cutting back-reflected light by about 95 percent. That matters because optical isolators prevent light from traveling back toward the laser…...

3+ day, 20+ hour ago   (773+ words) Attosecond pulse trains conventionally demand precisely aligned harmonic emissions, a process akin to orchestral tuning before performance. However, newly described ‘attoquants’ bypass this need entirely through intermodal entanglement, generating pulses without phase-locking between harmonics. These quantum states arise from collective…...
