Optical fiber biosensors (OFBs) achieve ultra-low detection limits for biomarkers and toxins, yet face challenges in reproducibility and scalable manufacturing.

Caltech scientists have developed a way to guide light on silicon wafers with low signal loss approaching that of optical fiber at visible wavelengths. This accomplishment paves the way for a new ...

- The breakthrough leverages international-standard-compliant, cutoff-shifted optical fibers with a novel approach that triples the capacity of certain spectral regions using spatial-division ...

Researchers have developed a miniature optical fiber biosensor capable of detecting key biomarkers of diabetic retinopathy ...

Several factors are driving the popularity of optical fiber cabling. Chief among those is the growth of high-tech applications that require the massive bandwidth fiber-optic cabling makes possible.

The usefulness of most quantum computers is still significantly limited by the low number of qubits that hardware can support. But simple fiber optic cables – just like the ones used for broadband ...
