Engineers Report Breakthrough in Laser Beam Technology

New York Times October 26, 2005
*************************

A team of Stanford electrical
engineers has discovered how to
modulate a beam of laser light up to
a 100 billion times a second with
widely used silicon and germanium
materials, using a standard
chip-making process to design a key
component of optical networking gear
potentially more than 10 times
faster than the highest-performance
commercial...
