But it's something of an apparently completely different... phenotype from a small waveguide.
The seemingly arbitrary 300Ghz line was probably more cultural than essential; the instrumentation was just very different. What's the analog for a prism for microwave?

- walrus01 11y agoThe key part in physics is it's still a wave... And a singlemode fiber is a type of waveguide. A 120GHz signal is a wave, a 171 THz signal is a wave, the latter just has a much shorter wavelength.
- Sanddancer 11y ago300Ghz ends up with a wavelength of 1mm, so it more follows the pattern of bandwidth assignment, which likes nice round numbers given in wavelength.
