Talk:Optical buffer

"Implementation of optical buffers As light cannot be frozen, an optical buffer is made of optical fibers, and is generally much larger than a RAM chip of comparable capacity. A single fiber can serve as a buffer, however, a set of more than one is usually used. A possibility, for example, is to choose a certain length D for the smallest fiber, and then let the second, third... have lengths . Another typical example is to use a single loop, in which the data circulates a variable number of times."

In the beginning where it states light cannot be frozen, this is outdated information see http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/3308109.stm for details

Is this topic not notable?

@Mark viking: I found a few thousand articles about optical buffers, so it seems likely that this topic is notable. Why did you add this cleanup tag here? Jarble (talk) 00:43, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jarble, thanks for pinging me. Nine months later, I don't fully remember my reasoning for adding the notability tag. I vaguely remember finding only one review article,[1] But you are correct, with lots of primary sources this is likely notable and is an error on my part. Thanks for catching that; I will remove the tag. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 02:28, 21 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
