In this episode of Photonics Hot List...
The world’s smallest holographic microscope, created using the recently developed world’s smallest silicon LED, is doing things that were previously impossible. And someday, smartphone cameras could become part of the mix.
Combining deep-learning models and underground fiber optic cables, accessed via street manholes, researchers aim to advance wireless networks, Smart Cities, and the Internet of Things, and maybe even alleviate traffic congestion.
A CMOS-compatible thin-film silicon nitride nanoscale isolator is poised to revolutionize laser systems and potentially all photonic devices as we know them, boosting things like on-chip optical amplifiers and quantum computing.
