  1. πŸ“Ά ⚑ Our researchers, in collaboration with colleagues from Harvard University, have engineered a chip that can convert between electromagnetic pulses in the terahertz and optical ranges on the same device. Their integrated design could enable the development of devices for ultrafast telecommunications, ranging, spectroscopy, and computing.

  2. #NASA πŸ“† July 12, 2023 #DSS23 started in πŸ“† February 2021 at the Goldstone, #California, #DSN Complex (with #OpticalCommunication
    capabilities, which will be critical to communicate with #astronauts πŸ‘¨β€πŸš€πŸ‘©β€πŸš€ traveling to #Mars πŸ”΄). NASA cannot use #RadioFrequency communications to carry higher data rates like those required for Mars without increasing
    the size of its antennas πŸ“‘ or power of its radio transmitters. Therefore, the Agency is developing #optical communications (use
    of light as a means of transmitting information through #lasers) oig.nasa.gov/docs/IG-23-016.pd
