While the rest of the world is preparing devices for the advent of ultrafast, 5G wireless service, one UCF physicist has already set his sights on 10G.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s network speeds have evolved at an incredible pace, but they\u2019re still grounded in the same fundamental radio wave technology that was used, for instance, to send a distress signal from the Titanic. Physics Professor Michael N. Leuenberger\u2019s work skips the tried-and-true and instead explores the potential of mid-infrared wavelengths.<\/p>\n

The wavelengths would be emitted from a nanopatterned graphene thermal emitter similar to today\u2019s 5G antenna, but smaller and more efficient. This answer comes at a time when current technology is rapidly approaching its size limits.<\/p>\n

While the potential for faster network speeds remains a priority, that\u2019s not the only potential application of the thermal emitter. Leuenberger also envisions the technology paving the way for 3D ultra-high definition monitors, data kiosks and Wifi access points to download big data. Faster speeds makes possible more realistic and responsive virtual reality.<\/p>\n

More details about their work can be found in a recently published article<\/a> in Scientific Reports.<\/p>\n

\u201cResearch is important for me to advance the general knowledge in the field of physics for humanity, create new inventions and develop technologies that are beneficial to humanity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
