breakthrough in optical fibre communications



Researchers from the Optoelectronics Research Centre (ORC) at the University of Southampton working with Eblana Photonics Inc, in Ireland, have revealed a breakthrough in optical fibre communications in a paper published in the prestigious journal Nature Communications.

Academics from the ORC have collaborated with colleagues at Eblana Photonics Inc to develop an approach that enables direct modulation of laser currents to be used to generate highly advanced modulation format signals.
