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 ...

To make glass that's pure enough for fiber-optic cable, you cannot just melt sand. Instead you send gas traveling through flames to create glass soot particles that are deposited on a rod in a ...

As a world leader in optical fiber arrays and cable assemblies, Fiberguide is uniquely positioned to help Molex address the stringent needs of medical applications, including high-power laser ...

We tour a North Carolina plant where melted glass is pulled into the hair-like strands that power fiber-optic cable.
