Unconventional Optical Elements for Information Storage, (NATO SCIENCE PARTNERSHIP SUB-SERIES: 3: High Technology Volume 75)
By Unknown Author.
Description
The field of optics has been accelerating at an unprecedented rate, due both to the tremendous growth of the field of fiber-optic communications, and to the improvement of optical materials and devices. Throughput capabilities of fiber systems are accelerating faster than Moore's law, the famous growth rate of silicon chip capability, which has propelled that industry relentlessly over decades. In addition, new optical storage techniques push the limits of information density, with an ever decreasing cost per bit of storage. Economic investment in photonics is at an all-time high. At t...
