An optical isolator developed at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) could drastically improve optical systems for many practical applications. All optical ...

Optical isolation and nonreciprocal devices are pivotal components in modern photonic systems, ensuring unidirectional light propagation and safeguarding sensitive equipment from unwanted reflections.

Traditional computers are fast, but nothing like the speed of light—at 186,000 miles per second, you can crunch numbers awfully quick. That’s a big reason why optical photonics are being used for ...

Spun off from a laboratory at Inha University in South Korea, PhotoniSol, a dynamic startup, is leading the charge in silicon photonic integrated devices. The company focuses on commercializing a ...

Photon, an elementary particle that transmits electromagnetic interaction, is a kind of gauge boson. Photons are the carriers of electromagnetic radiation, and photons are considered as the medium of ...

Static common-mode specifications have been the traditional standard used to measure isolators and compare devices with different construction or technologies. However, that standard is no longer an ...
