Researchers in Shanghai have recently determined a way to construct an optical disk with that could store on the order of 200 TB, as per The Register. This would be achieved through the use of a ...

Researchers in China have developed a super-high capacity optical disk format that is claimed to hold up to 125TB of data, reports Hong Kong’s SCMP. The new disks are described as outwardly ...

The most common types are CD, DVD and Blu-ray. As removable media, optical discs superseded the earlier magnetic disk cartridges because they weigh less, have higher capacities and are not subject ...

Starting while at a Silicon Valley startup, Siros Technologies, we explored an alternative approach extnending current optical disk technologies. Here, a spinning disk is written and read by a focused ...

An earlier removable, rewritable optical disk that also used magnetic technology. Introduced in 1985, magneto-optic (MO) media and drives are no longer manufactured. Refurbished drives and media ...

Scientists have discovered a way to use single missing atoms in crystals as memory cells, packing terabytes of data into a ...

From quantum computing to controlled nuclear fusion, from brain-computer interfaces to space mining, and from Huawei's ...

Fu Yuxi from Xi'an Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics (XIOPM) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed the ...

Thin-disk single-cavity dual-comb lasers (TDSCs) offer a promising alternative to traditional dual-comb systems, simplifying the setup and enabling power scaling. Their shared resonator components ...

The Rayleigh criterion is a commonly used criterion to define the resolution limit of an optical system. According to this criterion, two point sources of light can be resolved when the central ...
