  • What is silicon photonics sensing technology

    What is silicon photonics sensing technology

    Silicon photonics is a technology that integrates optical components (such as laser parts) with silicon-based integrated circuits. It uses light signals instead of electrical signals to achieve high-speed data transmission, longer transmission distances, and low power consumption. These operate in the infrared, most commonly at the 1. It enables optical communication on a silicon platform, bringing together the speed of light with the scalability of CMOS. Manufacturing photonic circuits using CMOS technologies, also known as silicon photonics, not only offers the scale of semiconductor wafer-scale fabrication, it also enables advantages in new electronics applications using the properties of light in computation, communication, sensing, and imaging.

  • Underground optical cable for overhead power transmission lines

    Underground optical cable for overhead power transmission lines

    An optical ground wire (also known as an OPGW or, in the IEEE standard, an optical fiber composite overhead ground wire) is a type of cable that is used in overhead power lines. Such cable combines the functions of grounding and telecommunications. An OPGW cable contains a tubular structure with one or more optical fibers in it, surrounded by layers of steel and aluminum wire. The. HistoryAn OPGW cable was patented by BICC in 1977 and installation of optical ground wires became widespread starting in the 1980s. In the peak year of 2000, around 60,000 km of OPGW was installed worldwide. Asia, especially. Several different styles of OPGW are made. In one type, between 8 and 48 glass optical fibers are placed in a plastic tube. The tube is inserted into a stainless steel, aluminum, or aluminum-coated steel tube, with some slack lengt.
