'Rainbow-on-a-chip' could help unlock 6G networks and precision timing for quantum technologies
Loughborough University physicists and an international team have demonstrated that a grain-of-rice-sized microchip can be used to produce a spectrum of precisely spaced frequencies of light, which is then converted into multiple…
AI Summary
A microcomb generates many distinct light frequencies that are separated and evenly spaced, unlike the blended colors of a visible rainbow. The study’s microcomb emits light outside the visible spectrum.
