Thorlabs announces acquisition of Praevium Research

Electro optical modulators (EOMs) are the main components in optical communication networks, which can control the amplitude, phase, and polarization of light through external electrical signals.In order to achieve ultra compact and high-performance EOM, most of today's research focuses on on-chip devices that combine semiconductor technology with state-of-the-art tunable materials. However,...

Imagine in such a world, the detection of trace substances is not only fast, but also incredibly accurate, indicating a new era of technological progress in health, safety, and environmental monitoring. Due to pioneering research on plasma waveguide structures, this vision is becoming increasingly realistic, aimed at enhancing refractive index sensing and spectral filtering. This innovative method...

Tongkuai Optoelectronic Devices, a global leader in vertical cavity laser emitters (VCSEL) and laser diodes (PD) solutions based in Germany, and a Spanish expert in high-speed optical network solutions, KDPOF, showcased the first 980 nm multi gigabit interconnect system for automotive systems at last week's ECOC.Both companies are committed to achieving the most advanced optical data communication...
