MIT researchers have built a nanoscale photonic device shaped like a tiny ski jump that launches laser light directly off a ...

Photonic chips use light to process data instead of electricity, enabling faster communication speeds and greater bandwidth.

Inside most photonic chips, light races through tiny optical wires. It carries information far faster than electricity can in many conventional systems. But once that light is trapped on the chip, ...

Researchers from MIT, Cambridge, Mass., and elsewhere have developed what they call “a new class of photonic devices that ...

A tiny metasurface chip can turn invisible infrared light into steerable visible beams, opening the door to powerful new ...
