Abstract

Purdue University researchers have developed a way to finely control ultra-fast laser pulses' spectral properties to create more powerful optical-communications technologies, The laser pulses last a trillionth to a quadrillionth of a second-picosecond to a femtosecond. In essence, each pulse could serve as a data hit in future high-speed optical-communications systems. Picosecond pulses could yield data rates ot one terabit per second, much higher than those of today's lightwave communications systems.
