RF Reference Transmitted Over Fiber Optics Could Reduce Reliance on Atomic Clocks
Researchers have demonstrated that a stable radio-frequency (RF) reference can be reliably transmitted more than 300 km over a standard fiber optic telecommunications network and used to synchronize two radio telescopes. The new technology could allow scientists anywhere to access the frequency standard simply by tapping into the telecommunications network, regardless of whether they have access to an atomic clock.

Key Solid-State Lighting Material Limitation Discovered
An international research group has discovered the core mechanism that limits the indium (In) content in indium gallium nitride (InGaN) thin films, a key material for making blue LEDs. In an effort to push the indium content to the limit, scientists grew single atomic layers of indium nitride (InN) on gallium nitride (GaN).
