photonic systems

Photonic systems use light (photons) to transmit, process, and store information, similar to how electronic systems use electrons. They include technologies like fiber optics for fast internet, laser communication, and photonic integrated circuits. These systems leverage light’s high speed and bandwidth to achieve efficient, high-capacity data transfer and processing with minimal energy loss. Photonics is fundamental to modern telecommunications, medical imaging, and emerging quantum technologies, offering compact and faster alternatives to traditional electronic components by manipulating photons rather than electrical signals.
