As Moore's Law slows, people are starting to look for alternatives to the silicon chips we've long been reliant on. A new optical switch up to 1,000 times faster than normal transistors could one day ...

With the proliferation of fiber-optic products containing interfaces ranging from Gigabit Ethernet to 10-Gbps SONET, the demand for optical testing capabilities is high. Unfortunately, so is the cost ...

The field of ultrafast magnetism explores how flashes of light can manipulate a material's magnetization in trillionths of a second. In the process called all-optical switching (AOS), a single laser ...

Mahatma Gandhi once said, "There is more to life than increasing its speed." Wise words, indeed, for us personally. They also hold true for data centers, but in a different way. While increasing the ...

High-bandwidth networks use fiber links to carry large volumes of mission-critical traffic. Outages often result in large financial losses, so carriers and enterprises have used a variety of ...

The rapid and on-going development of micro-miniature optical electronic devices is helping to usher in a new era of photonic computers and light-based memories that promise super-fast processor ...

When it comes to gaming keyboards, there are literally hundreds of options. While mechanical switches are the switch of choice for gamers, more manufacturers are releasing gaming keyboards with ...
