Nature Photonics Publication - A novel microwave plasmonic mixer
Researchers from ETH Zurich, Switzerland, have developed a novel tiny wireless antenna concept that may deliver high-speed internet from the curb directly to the house. The novelty in this invention is a new type of wireless receiver, which can directly map a wireless signal to an optical fiber - without the need for any electrical power connection. The antenna together with the optical scheme are built on a single chip. The group has demonstrated transmitting wireless data at 20 Gbit/s.
