| | | | | | | | A misconception about quantum dot lasers (QDLs) is they’re poised to replace indium phosphide (InP) technology. But InP externally modulated lasers (EMLs) will continue serving optical networking and datacom applications, while QDLs emerge for applications that require power efficiency, thermal resilience, and integration density. |

| | Sponsored | | Alluxa offers and manufactures high-performance optical thin films. All of Alluxa's thin-film optical filters and mirrors are hard-coated using a proprietary plasma deposition process on equipment that was designed and built by our team. This allows us to repeatably produce the same high-performance optical thin films in all of our coating chambers. |

| | | | | | After heating an optical fiber for nearly an hour, researchers completely changed its dispersion within a small section and ended up with a supercontinuum that covers a wide range of wavelengths—0.86 to 2.90 µm—and it’s also remarkably stable and reliable. |
