| Abstract(in English) | From the advent of fiber and laser in 70's, optical communications technology has established itself as the underlying basis of a new social infrastructure, supporting, for example, key industrial, financial, educational and medical activities. The recent globalization of the world would not have been feasible without our optical technology breakthroughs. In recent years optical communications have allowed the feasibility of IPTV applications, including broadcast TV, on-demand, and interactive streaming services, which have increased traffic by orders of magnitude. This exploding traffic growth rate is exceeding that of Moore's Law, which has meant the power consumption of our technology area is also forming an ever larger proportion of overall CO_2 emissions. Our quest of further technical progress must be to find solutions, like the EDFA or ROADM in the past, which increase the flexibility and efficiency of photonic networks. |
