A nano-roundabout for light


STELLAR CHEMISTRY
A nano-roundabout for light Vienna, Austria (SPX) Dec 12, 2016 - Just like in normal road traffic, crossings are indispensable in optical signal processing. In order to avoid collisions, a clear traffic rule is required. A new method has now been developed at TU Wien to provide such a rule for light signals. For this purpose, the two glass fibers were coupled at their intersection point to an optical resonator, in which the light circulates and behaves as in ... more
