The primary research interest covers a broad range of Fiber optics sensing techniques and optical sensors, devices, systems and signal processing. For more information on our current and past projects ...

Now a new €5 million EU-funded project has begun work to allow fiber optic cable lines under roads, fields and seas to double up as sensors capable of spotting earthquakes, monitoring traffic, and ...

A research team from the University of Electro-Communications in Japan has invented a fiber optic system that transmits both data and power over the same cable. A research team from the University of ...

The OS4000 Series industrial high-speed fiber-optic infrared transmitter measures temperatures from 200 to 1,600°C using three optical fields of view and three fiber-optic cable lengths. The OS4000 ...

Fiber optic cables have vastly improved our ability to communicate or transmit data over great distances — but a critical flaw has gone unaddressed for the 50-plus years we’ve used them. Glass fibers ...

Tubular laser beams can create what amount to fiber-optic cables made of thin air, researchers report in a study to appear in Physical Review X. Laser-heated air can efficiently transmit light signals ...

The digitization of the oil and gas industry continues to gain momentum, transforming how reservoirs are monitored for both energy production and carbon storage. Tight carbonate reservoirs require ...

Local and state leaders joined representatives from AT&T Wednesday to celebrate the company’s completion of fiber optic ...
