Many thanks to all those who followed up on this post and requested more information on the status of our #6G #xhaul studies and the #innovations associated with #oDAC transmitters, #AOSP receivers (utilizing novel #opticalequalizers & #polarizationdemultiplexers), and novel #opticalswitching architectures for the #fronthaul/#midhaul/#backhaul network segments! Stay tuned for upcoming articles and posts with more details on these innovations and the way that they can be combined with advanced #networkcontrol and other emerging technologies (e.g. #networksensing, #digitaltwins and #quantumnetworking) so that to revolutionize the way that #6Gnetworks are designed and operated.

Thrilled to share that my research will be presented at the IEEE Energy Conversion Conference and Expo (ECCE) in Philadelphia, USA, on October 22, 2025 (04:20 PM – 04:40 PM)! ⚡ Our study explores loss mechanisms in hairpin windings and introduces design optimizations, from refined slot geometry to additive manufacturing–enabled conductor segmentation and twisting, leading to a significant reduction in total Joule losses. These findings demonstrate how tailored conductor design can boost the efficiency of next-generation electric machines. If you’re attending ECCE in Philadelphia, I’d love for you to check out the talk! #ProFluxx GmbH #Institute for Drive Systems and Power Electronics (IAL) - Leibniz Universität Hannover #EMByAM Project #Marie_Curie_Slovakia_Actions #Germany #IEEE Energy Conversion Congress & Expo (ECCE) #ElectricMachines #AdditiveManufacturing #FEA #Research

🚨 Post-Deadline Paper Presentation Alert – ECOC 2025 🚨 🔬 “Transmission over Randomly-Coupled Multi-Core Fiber Enabled by All-Optical MIMO Demultiplexing” 📍 Oral presentation by Stefano Grillanda (Nokia Bell Labs, Murray Hill, NJ, USA) 🗓️ Session: ECOC 2025 Post-Deadline Papers This is the first-ever demonstration of transmission over a randomly-coupled multi-core fiber using all-optical MIMO demultiplexing, powered by a silicon photonic integrated circuit. The system successfully demultiplexes all 10 Gbaud PDM-QPSK channels over 5 km of randomly-coupled 4-core fiber — a major leap toward scalable spatial-division multiplexing. 🧠 A collaborative effort between: • Nokia Bell Labs (USA) • Politecnico di Milano (Italy) • Sumitomo Electric Industries (Japan) • Macquarie University (Australia) 📌 Don’t miss this cutting-edge advancement in optical communications! #ECOC2025 #PDP #MulticoreFiber #SiliconPhotonics #MIMO #OpticalCommunications #NokiaBellLabs #ResearchInnovation

Tau showcased the validation study of the Gamma eMachine at #ClimateWeek 2025. The platform offers a breakthrough in electric motor technology that eliminates rare earth materials and redefines what’s possible in sustainable electrification. Gamma is the result of years of innovation across electromagnetics, power electronics, controls, and hardware design. It reflects our belief that the future of energy systems must be efficient, resilient, and scalable. Presenting the technology at Columbia Engineering's Center of Advanced Electrification Climate Week Symposium was a special moment as Tau works to accelerate the electrification of everything. Our Founder and CEO Wesley Pennington was joined on stage by CCAE Director and Associate Professor Matthias Preindl who reviewed the validation study of the technology, underscoring the importance of collaboration between industry and academia. This is just the beginning. With Gamma, we’re laying the foundation for scalable, software-defined electrification that will power vehicles and energy systems worldwide.

#TechTuesday 🚀 | 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗹-𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁: 𝗡𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗜𝗧𝗖 𝗶𝗻 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗶𝘀 In the POLARIS-NGF program Theme Valorization – Technology Providers, we are taking key steps toward transforming cutting-edge research into competitive industrial solutions — a goal that perfectly reflects the collaboration between CITC and Neways. CITC - Chip Integration Technology Center brings deep expertise in advanced packaging and die-attach technologies, while Neways translates these innovations into manufacturable and reliable solutions for real RF applications. Our joint focus is on sintering — a high-performance die-attach technology with strong potential for radar and MRI systems, and later for broader applications. Together, we aim to: • Validate sintering for RF demonstrators • Accelerate the transition from lab-scale research to industrial production • Strengthen strategic autonomy within the Dutch microelectronics ecosystem This collaboration shows how research can directly drive industrial innovation and create tangible impact for both industry and society. Stay tuned as we move from trials to demonstrators. #Neways #CITC #Polaris #Valorization #RFtechnology #AdvancedPackaging #Innovation
