Researchers have built a new platform that produces ultrashort UV-C laser pulses and detects them at room temperature using atom-thin materials. The light flashes last just femtoseconds and can be ...

Quantum communication is edging closer to reality thanks to a breakthrough in teleporting information between photons from different quantum dots—one of the biggest challenges in building a quantum ...

Prof. Andrew Forbes joins Nkepile Mabuse to unpack quantum internet, light patterns, encryption threats, Starlink and SA’s ...

A VLC system consisting of a transmitter and a receiver was constructed, and a serializer/deserializer using 8B13B coding was implemented on an FPGA. The data modulated onto the LED light were ...

Researchers at the Nano Life Science Institute (WPI-NanoLSI), Kanazawa University, report the successful creation of artificial synaptic vesicles that can be remotely controlled by near-infrared (NIR) ...

space, ground, underwater, data center, and indoor networks. With the evolution of the sixth-generation (6G) mobile communication toward a space-air-ground-sea integrated network, massive data-centric ...

Visible light communication (VLC) harnesses the visible spectrum, typically emitted by light-emitting diodes or laser diodes, to transmit data in addition to providing illumination. By modulating the ...

Ambient-temperature thermal infrared radiation is an underutilised resource for secure communications. Demonstrations of free-space data transfer using thermal radiation have been few, and have relied ...
