Light Coupled in Fiber Oscillates Longitudinally
Lightwaves, which typically oscillate perpendicular to their propagation direction, have been seen oscillating longitudinally when coupled into glass fibers, suggesting that light and matter couple much more strongly than previously thought.

Photonics Growth in Europe Outpaces GDP
With a worldwide market value projected to hit €615 billion (about $791 billion) in 2020 and to remain stronger than the gross domestic product (GDP), photonics has moved from a niche application to a key enabling technology, according to Photonics Industry Report 2013, which was presented at Laser World of Photonics this week. The high-tech segment also has demonstrated solid growth since 2005, despite the financial crisis, the report states.
