Light can come in many frequencies, only a small fraction of which can be seen by humans. Between the invisible low-frequency radio waves used by cell phones and the high frequencies associated with ...

Optical frequency combs are specially designed lasers that act like rulers to accurately and rapidly measure specific frequencies of light. They can be used to detect and identify chemicals and ...

Wireless electronics that have been used thus far in next-generation mobile communications using terahertz waves may reach their technical limit (namely, upper limit of frequency for wireless ...

Ultrabroadband IR frequency comb could be used for detection in portable spectrometers. The comb uses a double-chirped mirror. Researchers at MIT have demonstrated a compact, fully integrated ...
