Integrated Waveguides
Integrated waveguides are tiny, precisely engineered pathways—often made of materials like glass or silicon—that guide light signals on electronic chips, similar to how wires carry electricity. They are used in devices like optical fibers and photonic circuits to transmit data quickly and efficiently. These waveguides enable high-speed communication and processing by directing light with minimal loss, allowing optical signals to be integrated seamlessly into electronic systems for advanced technologies such as telecommunications, sensors, and computing.
