To carry information over long distances, the fiber must be extraordinarily clear. The magic behind an optical fiber’s transparency is a combination of material science and manu ...

For those of you that don't know who The Engineer Guy is, his name is Bill Hammack and he's made it his business to pull back the shroud of mystery from the world of science and engineering. He's done ...

Physicists have engineered light to drift sideways in discrete, quantized steps inside a fiber-optic loop, reproducing a signature behavior of the quantum Hall effect without electrons, magnetic ...

Scientists in China claim to have developed a new type of ultra-thin optical fiber that could improve brain imaging and boost high-speed communications. This fiber, which runs on an optical neural ...
