A pair of phase 3 clinical trial results show favorable safety and IOP-lowering effects in glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Google Moonshot company unveils new way to transmit ultra-high-speed internet through the air using light, shrinking core technology onto a single chip to deliver fibre-like speeds without cables or ...

Wireless communications startup Taara Connect Inc., a spinout from X, Google LLC’s Moonshot Factory, today unveiled Taara Photonics, a wireless communication platform based on optical phased arrays ...

Light powers everything from communications to sensing, yet even tiny imperfections can scatter it and weaken signals. To address this, a team led by the University of Bath—working with the University ...

Optical fiber biosensors (OFBs) achieve ultra-low detection limits for biomarkers and toxins, yet face challenges in reproducibility and scalable manufacturing.

They developed a unique sound-sensing design that uses a vibration-sensitive membrane and an internal glass micro-beam ...

The OFC exhibit floor brings the full optical ecosystem together in one place, giving attendees the opportunity to evaluate solutions side by side and connect directly with the teams turning ...

The thought experiment began with a number. Single-mode fiber optics can now transmit data at 256 terabits per second over 200 kilometers. Based on that capacity, ...

A newly developed fiber-optic microphone demonstrates how light-based sensing can overcome the limitations of conventional electronics in extreme environments.

Quantum communication has long promised unbreakable encryption, but the hardware has struggled to escape the lab. A new generation of laser-written glass chips is changing that equation, carving three ...

Researchers have fabricated a hair-thin microphone made entirely of silica fiber that can detect a large range of ultrasound frequencies beyond the reach of the human ear. Able to withstand ...

In this way, and almost by chance, researchers at TU Wien developed a novel microscopy technique that allows the refractive index of biological samples to be measured at a resolution far below what ...
