A new working group set up by the Consortium For On-Board Optics (COBO) will try to establish optical waveguides as a viable technology for high-speed, board-level interconnects inside data centers.

Ultrathin structures that can bend, focus, or filter light, metasurfaces are reshaping how scientists think about optics. These engineered materials offer precise control over lights behavior, but ...

Researchers have developed a new class of integrated photonic devices -- 'leaky-wave metasurfaces' -- that convert light initially confined in an optical waveguide to an arbitrary optical pattern in ...

Comprised of judiciously engineered microscopic photonic structures with subwavelength features, the concept of metasurface and metamaterials have proven fruitful results in the realm of meta-optics.

Waveguides are structures designed to direct and control the propagation of electromagnetic waves from one point to another. They play a crucial role in various fields, including telecommunications, ...
