Although optical fibers are highly effective at data transmission, they're also relatively brittle. An experimental new type of optical fiber addresses that limitation, by incorporating a core made of ...

Researchers have harnessed the light-guiding properties of spider silk to develop a sensor that can be used to determine concentrations of fructose, sucrose and glucose sugars based on changes in a ...

This evolution places unprecedented importance on the backbone of modern connectivity: high-density fiber optic cabling. Among the critical components enabling this infrastructure, the MPO ...
