In low-bandwidth applications, fiber optic cable transmits data using one color of light. There’s a way to get more bandwidth out of a fiber optic cable, as [Shahriar] found out while ...

Physicists from the University of Oregon have successfully changed the color of individual photons within a fiber optic cable. They were able to do so by focusing a dual-color burst of light from ...

The techno-chic with a few thousand dollars to spare can sport outfits that can change color on a whim ... was a dress she made of fabric with fiber optics woven in and sensors in the sleeves.

That’s pretty decent, but across the Atlantic, researchers at UK’s Aston University recently managed to coax about 1.2 million times that rate using a single fiber optic cable—a new record ...

These fibers transmit data through different color channels, with each corresponding to a specific wavelength of light. Related: Fiber-optic data transfer speeds hit a rapid 301 Tbps — 1.2 ...
