Data centers are increasingly pivotal in the digital world, and there is an ever-growing need for faster and more efficient data transmission. Fiber optics remain the primary method of guiding optical signals from one point to another in a data center. However,...
Internet traffic continues to grow dramatically, with new data-heavy applications such as cloud-based services a significant factor contributing to this growth. In response, the number of data centers around the globe has grown, however, the demand for the network...
Storage infrastructures form the backbone of data centers, as they hold the data owned by enterprises, government institutions, or private individuals. Various types of data centers exist to serve the purposes of different application areas, such as cloud storage,...
The Internet of Things (IoT) is now commonplace everywhere, from households to industrial settings, enabling “smart” device behavior. A smart device uses sensors to change its behavior due to an environmental factor or from information provided by particular data...
Optical filter design is crucial in benchtop Raman spectroscopy instruments and recently for handheld Raman spectroscopy instruments, which are becoming increasingly popular for rapid forensic screening, historical investigations and pharmaceutical quality control.1...
Raman spectroscopy is one of the most widely used quantitative and qualitative spectroscopic techniques and is compatible with molecular and material samples. In a Raman experiment, the frequencies of the oscillations of the chemical bonds are measured, and the exact...
While Raman spectroscopy is widely used in many areas of analytical and medical sciences, including in situ and in vivo measurements,1,2 a challenge for Raman spectroscopy measurements is the inherently weak nature of the Raman effect. Most modern Raman spectroscopy...
Raman spectroscopy is a robust quantitative and qualitative spectroscopic technique for analysing molecular or material samples. Raman spectroscopy’s sensitivity to the vibrational structure of a sample makes it integral for identification. Each molecule or...
Bandpass filters are important optical components in shaping the spectrum of light. Many optical devices rely on bandpass filters to provide more signal and less background, essentially isolating frequencies within a particular band which are desirable for one reason...
Bandpass filters are optical filters that only let a selected range of frequencies through. Bandpass filters are used for many optical applications in telecommunications, satellite communications and data transfer for light modulation. This article will explore some...
Bandpass filters are a crucial component in many optical devices, providing a means of filtering out undesired wavelengths of light. Myriad applications use bandpass filters, including telecom, spectroscopy, and remote sensing. How do bandpass filters work? A bandpass...
Research astronomers around the globe observe objects that are millions of light years away from the earth, but deep sky observations are not the only area of interest. Fascinating discoveries are also made on: our nearest star, the sun; planets in our solar system;...
