Single Laser on Optical Chip Sets Data Transmission Record
LYNGBY, Denmark, Nov. 3, 2022 — An international team of researchers has reportedly set a data transmission record using just a single laser and optical chip to transmit more than 1 Pbit/s. The researchers, from the Technical University of Denmark and Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, transmitted data at 1.8 Pbit/s, corresponding to double the total global internet traffic. The demonstrated data transmission method used significantly less power than conventional approaches to data transmission and can help
