As New Scientist explained on Wednesday, a diamond optical disc can store the same amount ... The researchers placed these shards in front of a laser that fired ultrafast pulses of light at ...
An earlier removable, rewritable optical disk that also used magnetic technology ... Refurbished drives and media are available from MaxOptix.com. A laser heats the optical bit to the Curie ...
New optical storage archiving systems promise 1PB optical cartridges by the 2030’s. Optical storage could be a significant ...
Researchers built their system with laser beams, digital displays, and simple lenses. The breakthrough in optical computing ...
On (nearly) every DVD, and almost every GameCube disc, there’s a ‘barcode’ of sorts on the inside of the optical tracks ... can only be cut with a YAG laser that’s significantly more ...
A high-power ytterbium thin-disk laser drives an optical parametric oscillator (OPO) to generate high-power, stable pulses in the short-wave infrared (SWIR) spectral range. This allows ...
A storage system that contains multiple optical drives that read and write the media simultaneously. Libraries may hold one disc per drive or have storage for any number of discs or cartridges ...
A high-power ytterbium thin-disk laser drives an optical parametric oscillator to generate high-power, stable pulses in the short-wave infrared spectral range. This allows researchers to detect ...
Previous techniques have also used laser pulses to encode data into diamonds, but the higher storage density means a ...
As prices of writeable media and drives dropped, consumers rushed to duplicate games, create their own mix CDs, and backup their data on optical disc. It was a halcyon time. Fast forward to today ...
