- Fujitsu Laboratories Develops Compact Silicon Photonics Light Source for High-Bandwidth CPU Interconnects
Kawasaki, Japan, September 16, 2011 – Fujitsu Laboratories Limited today announced the development of a compact silicon photonics light source for use in optical transceivers required for optical interconnects capable of carrying large volumes of data at high speeds between CPUs. In the past, when the silicon photonics light sources built into optical transceivers, and the optical modulators that encode data into the light emitted from the light source experienced thermal fluctuations, a mismatch between the lasing wavelength of the light source and the operating wavelength of the modulator could arise, causing concern that the light would not carry information. This is why thermal control has become indispensable as a way to maintain operating wavelengths that consistently match. By introducing a mechanism that automatically keeps the light source's wavelength and the modulator's operating wavelength in sync, Fujitsu Laboratories has obviated the need for a thermal control mechanism, allowing for the device to be smaller and more energy efficient.

- Fujitsu Develops Terahertz-Band Imaging Method Speeding Up Material Inspections 25-Fold
Kawasaki, Japan, September 12, 2011 – Fujitsu Laboratories Limited today announced that it has developed a technology that will speed inspections that use terahertz-band imaging by a factor of 25. Terahertz waves, which can penetrate non-metallic materials such as paper, plastic, and textiles for nondestructive inspections, hold the promise of showing an accurate picture of a subject, revealing hidden materials through non-destructive inspections, and making an object's interior visible. Existing terahertz-wave inspection methods have only been able to measure a part of a substance per exposure. Obtaining a complete picture of a target object has required incrementally shifting the target between repeated exposures, resulting in a time-consuming process.
