  1. 📢#Europhoton: The call for paper is now open!

    This conference focuses on the latest advances in solid-state, #fibre and #waveguide #light sources.

    Europhoton 2026 will be held in Arcachon, France, from 21 to 25 September 2026.

  2. Whoa, folks! It looks like #Meta and #RayBan are trying to distract us with some "fancy" #AR #glasses that reveal... *gasp* #waveguide structures! 🤯 Spoiler alert: #tech enthusiasts everywhere are now reevaluating their life choices over this monumental revelation. 😂

  3. Got pulled down a rabbit hole learning about Schumann resonances, which are electromagnetic wave resonances in the atmosphere because the area between the earth's surface and the ionosphere acts as a spherical waveguide. The energy input is from lightning, which is practically continuous (50 strikes/s) when viewed worldwide. The fundamental frequency involved is 7.83 Hz, with various weaker harmonics above that.

    How I got pulled into the rabbit hole...

    Of *course* people are selling woo / magic / New Age B.S. around this stuff. But I'm sorry to say, your little trace-printed-on-a-PCB antenna supposedly broadcasting on this frequency to boost its "natural healing properties" is not going to be an effective radiator at sub-8 Hz, even if you turn it into a spiral to make it longer. The wavelength of the 7.83 Hz fundamental is ~38,000 km, so a basic quarter-wave antenna should be >9000 km long...

  4. Applications and Beyond
    NIL's impact spans diverse fields:
    •🕶️ Optics: #Lenses, #prisms, #waveguide couplers for #AR/#XR
    •⚙️ Nanotechnology: Custom nanostructures
    •🏥 Biomedicine: Precise #diagnostics, point-of-care devices and lab-on-a-chip

  5. Have any of you folks encountered thus type Soviet waveguide relay before?
    Looking for:
    A pinout for the connector
    A datasheet with the specs for driving it
    Connector type.
    This is X-band based on the waveguide dimensions.

  7. "The inherent stability of the #terahertz beat frequency between the signal and idler fields of an optical parametric oscillator is transferred to a microwave frequency of a Kerr #soliton comb, and synchronization is achieved via a coupling #waveguide without the need for electronic locking."

  8. "We illustrate the potential of these concepts by fabricating #nanostructures that are impossible to make with any other known method: #waveguide-coupled high-Q silicon photonic cavities that confine telecom #photons to 2 nm air gaps with an aspect ratio of 100, corresponding to mode volumes more than 100 times below the #diffraction limit. Scanning transmission electron microscopy measurements confirm the ability to build devices with sub-nanometre dimensions."

  9. A team of researchers has made a breakthrough discovery in the world of Beyond 5G/6G (B5G/6G) #signal #transmission. They have created a #waveguide made of #niobium that speeds up the transition of B5G/6G signals.

  10. A strange piece of #RF #junk
    There is a clear WR-90 #waveguide going into that shielded end of the thing.

  11. Hah. Apparently I'm the #waveguide person these days.

    "Hey I have these two large waveguide dummy loads, do you want them?"
    And here they are.
