Optical or Photonic switches are key devices for meeting data traffic growth in optical networks and data centres

Switches are important components of any communications network. Switches are found inside network-connected devices and used to change data transmission paths when transmitting data between devices. By quickly changing the transmission pathway and sending data only to relevant devices, the total load on the network can be reduced.   Optical …

Photonic Integrated Circuits (PIC) technology enable optical signal processing, optical communication, biophotonics, and sensing

Photonics is a breakthrough technology as it uses photons (smallest unit of light) as the data carrier instead of electrons (smallest unit of electricity) used in electronic ICs. As light travels at very high speeds, photonics is widely used to transfer huge amounts of data at a very high speed.Thus …

Digital Camera design and manufacturing

A digital camera is a camera that captures photographs in digital memory. Most cameras produced today are digital, largely replacing those that capture images on photographic film.   Digital and digital movie cameras share an optical system, typically using a lens with a variable diaphragm to focus light onto an …
