Bell Labs researcher honored with Charles H. Townes award
Bell Labs-Lucent Technologies (Murray Hill) researcher Linn F. Mollenauer received the Charles Hard Townes award at the Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics. The award, presented by the Optical Society of America (Washington, DC), cites Mollenauer`s "pioneering ultrafast optics in the 1.5-µm wavelength regime, demonstrating optical soliton propagation in fibers and developing innovative soliton systems that have set records for high-capacity repeaterless data transmission." In other news, Lucent Technologies introduced a fiberoptic cable, TrueWave Balanced Cable, at Supercomm `97 last month (New Orleans, LA) that self-compensates for dispersion or signal spreading.
