Copper-free chips generate robust ‘combs’ of multicoloured light

such as electronic integrated circuits and processors. However, the fabrication of silicon nitride devices such as waveguides and microresonators on silicon wafers is achieved using a thermal ...

This silicon chip creates dozens of laser beams from one source – and could reshape data centers

The technology hinges on what physicists call a frequency comb, a laser that emits many distinct colors, or wavelengths, evenly spaced across the optical spectrum. Each ...
