NONLINEAR OPTICS Terahertz Quantum Cascade Laser Frequency Combs Quantum cascade lasers have shown tremendous potential for generating frequency combs in the mid-infrared and terahertz regions. Four wave mixing (FWM) is the main comb formation process. Group velocity dispersion (GVD) is the main comb-degradation mechanism. And spatial hole burning (SHB) has a considerable impact on whether […]

Are Telepresence Robots the Best Way to Explore Other Worlds?
Are Telepresence Robots the Best Way to Explore Other

As we start looking towards more comprehensive exploration of the Moon and of Mars, the assumption is that we’re working on sending humans to the surface of those worlds. It’s going to be exponentially more difficult and dangerous than sending robots, but that’s what exploration is all about, right? There’s an article in the current […]

ANTENNAS Understanding Phase Noise from Vibrating Antennas Vibrating antennas distort signals. Previous analyses have focused on how physical distortion of the antenna structure changes beam patterns. The vibrational velocity and acceleration also have an effect, however, producing Doppler distortions that contribute heavily to noise at vibration frequencies up to 1000 Hz. CALL FOR PAPERS Substrate […]

Nano-Biotechnology Workshop at IMS 2017

MTT25 and MTT10 are jointly sponsoring a half-day workshop on Microwave Nano-biotechnology on June 9, 2017 as part of IMS 2017. The field of nano-biotechnology sits at the intersection of two rapidly growing fields of research. The ongoing push to scale electronic devices to nanometer-scale and even atomic dimensions has led to the discovery of […]

5G Focus: Peaceful Coexistence in the mmWave Frontier

The electromagnetic spectrum at frequencies above 6 GHz is sometimes depicted as a frontier wide open for 5G settlement. In fact, though, the landscape is dotted with established users whose territory must not be disturbed. These outposts include Fixed Services (FS, used for wireless backhaul in cellular communications) and Fixed Satellite Services (FSS, used to […]

A wireless industry consortium is developing a new technology called MulteFire that it says delivers the high performance of 4G LTE cellular networks while being as easy to deploy as Wi-Fi routers.Rather than relying on the licensed spectrum purchased for today’s LTE service, MulteFire operates entirely in the unlicensed 5 gigahertz band. And to set […]
