First Russian Li-Fi Network Launched at ITMO University
…download 18 films, each of 1.5 Gb size, within a second. The estimation, however, is solely theoretical. As for practice, implementing the technology in 2015, “Velmenni”, an Estonian company, managed to reach a transmission speed of 1 Gbps, which is still faster than Wi-Fi connection by 10-20 times (network settings must also be taken into account). The reason for…

How to get a grant for studying in USA or France? Master students from ITMO share their experiences
…nue my work in France. They have all the equipment that is required for my research. That is great, because I already spent a lot of time on it. My research is connected to photonic technology. I am working on a synthesis of non-linear optical crystals of an organic salt that is called DAST. In the research I try to find out the non-linear optical properties of a com…

ITMO Scientists Receive Alferov Foundation Award
…How dielectric and hybrid nanophotonics can change the future of electronic devices All existing electronic devices make use of electric signals. As for long range data transfer, we now use optical fibers, where data is transferred via light pulses. To transform them, we use different kinds of detectors and modulators. Yet, the existing electronic modulators work …

Created Chip Churns out High-Dimensional Entangled Photons
…The system uses a small and cost-effective photonic chip fabricated through processes like those used for integrated electronics. With an on-chip micro-ring resonator excited by a laser, photons are emitted in pairs that share a complex quantum state. The photons are constructed in a state featuring several superimposed frequency components: The photons have several …
