hollow core fiber

Microsoft’s latest lab demos show microfluidics — routing liquid through microscopic channels etched into silicon — moving from academic curiosity toward practical tooling for the next generation of AI hardware, a test that promises to reduce cooling overhead, enable higher chip density, and...

The hollowing-out of fiber optics just passed an important milestone: a research team tied to Microsoft and the University of Southampton has reported a hollow‑core optical fiber design that both lowers signal loss below the long‑standing practical floor for silica fiber and propagates light...
