Abstract:Frequency measurement in the optical domain has a number of applications other than the length standard, among which the most important field in a social context is optical fiber communications. In the 1990s, wavelength-division multiplexing began to increase communication capacity, and many specialists anticipate that precise optical frequency management is required in the near future. It was therefore necessary to add a stabilized laser in the 1.5-m optical communication band as a frequency standard to the C… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
