One example the company has developed is a crystal fibre that squeezes light into such a narrow core that the intensity of the light modifies the optical properties of the glass itself.
ECONOMIST: A new approach to making optical fibres
This generates the coherent light of a laser beam in the core of a long, thin optical fibre.
ECONOMIST: Solar power from space
In the same way, the pattern of holes in a crystal fibre can create the equivalent for light of a graphite core and a diamond cladding.
