For long-haul systems, mode division multiplexing using one mode per channel in a few-mode fiber requires coherent detection ... mode groups rather than spatial modes in standard graded-index ...

Japanese researchers hit 106Gbps per core with plastic fiber breakthrough Multicore plastic fiber slashes costs and complexity for AI data centers Bit error rate ...

This study employed a fusion splice method to combine single-mode fiber, coreless fiber, and graded-index fiber, developing a graded-index fiber collimator specifically tailored for QEPAS. The ...

By mechanically programming the fiber pattern, the E-FPTA can generate extending, contracting, twisting, bending, and helical motions. To demonstrate the potential applications of the E-FPTA, an ...
