SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — Midco officially announced its move to an all-fiber optic internet network. But what is fiber-optic internet? It is a method of broadband just like a cable modem, Digital ...

Scientists have successfully transmitted quantum internet signals over commercial fiber-optic cables, bringing us closer to a new era.

Tubular laser beams can create what amount to fiber-optic cables made of thin air, researchers report in a study to appear in Physical Review X. Laser-heated air can efficiently transmit light signals ...

Many of the world’s largest and most devastating earthquakes strike beneath the ocean, where the lack of sensors makes quick warnings difficult. Most monitoring stations are on land. “If we have a big ...

Monitoring seismic activity all over the world is an important task, but one that requires equipment to be at the site it’s measuring — difficult in the middle of the ocean. But new research from ...

A new type of optical fiber filled with nothing but thin air has been found to be particularly effective for carrying out quantum key distribution (QKD), a security protocol that is in principle ...
