More economical and efficient diode

They have managed to produce gallium arsenide diodes that emit light at the right wavelength. Because of this, fiber optic telecommunications is expected to be cheaper, faster and simpler than current ones.

Gallium arsenide diodes are cheaper than the others, but due to the wavelength of the light they emitted, they could only be used in short-distance communications. However, researchers at Yale University have managed to overcome this problem.
