Silicon photonic #microelectromechanicalsystems take a step forward @SPIEtweets https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/journals/journal-of-optical-microsystems/volume-2/issue-04/044001/Silicon-photonic-microelectromechanical-systems-add-drop-ring-resonator-in-a/10.1117/1.JOM.2.4.044001.full https://phys.org/news/2022-11-silicon-photonic-microelectromechanical.html
In recent years, global digitalization has seen unprecedented acceleration. Video streaming and video conferencing in home office and remote learning settings has resulted in a spike in residential broadband usage. Emerging applications such as artificial intelligence and autonomous vehicles will further accelerate the need for data communication in the future. Today's internet infrastructure is built on fiber-optic communications, but how can the fiber-optic communication systems be made more efficient to fulfill future digital communication needs?
Interesting article on the 2019 IEEE Medal of Honor winner, Kurt Petersen, who became an accidental evangelist for MEMS (microelectromechanical systems) after seeing a stain on a lab floor.
