Waves And Light Can Carry Data At Speeds Up To 100Gb / s
Terahertz rays can move data 1,000 times more than a standard 100 megabit network.
Researchers have made breakthroughs in controlling terahertz quantum laser, which can move large amounts of data at 100 gigabits per second — 1,000 times that of a regular 100 megabit network.
So what kind of laser is extraordinary compared to other types of laser? It can transmit light within the terahertz range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which has been applied in spectroscopy, to support chemical analysis.
The laser can also provide super fast jump-to-wire wireless links for high-volume data cases, such as hospitals and university research areas, and also use for industrial applications. Technology using satellite communications. Lasers need to transmit at a breakneck pace — by repeatedly switching on and off about 100 billion times per second.
A team of researchers at Leeds and Nottingham universities believe they can be transmitted in such a rhythm using sound and light waves and announced their results on February 11 in Nature Communications.
