Instrument Systems will showcase advanced optical measurement solutions for display technology in San Jose next week

For the first time, researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have demonstrated the full capabilities of their large-scale laser facility. The team reports generating a combination of ultrashort laser pulses, extreme peak power, and precisely controlled waveforms that make it possible to explore the fastest processes in nature.Umeå’s laser is 11 m long and generates very short pulses László Vei...

The Purdue University team in the United States has captured alkali metal atoms (cesium) in integrated photonic circuits, which can serve as transistors for photons (the smallest energy unit of light). These captured atoms demonstrate for the first time the potential of cold atom integrated nanophotonic circuits to construct quantum networks. The research results were published in the latest issue...

Infrared imaging and sensing technology can be used in various fields, from astronomy to chemistry. For example, when infrared light passes through a gas, sensing changes in light can help scientists identify specific properties of the gas. The use of visible light may not always achieve this sensing.However, existing infrared sensors are bulky and inefficient. In addition, due to the use of infra...

The deformable mirror used in adaptive optics can instantly correct the static wavefront aberrations and atmospheric turbulence wavefront disturbances of the optical system by changing its surface. This enables the optical system to automatically adapt to changes in the environment and maintain optimal performance. It is widely used in high-resolution astronomical observations, laser atmospheric t...

Scientists from the Hanover Laser Center (LZH) in Germany are studying two laser based processes for producing load adapted hybrid solid components.From a transaction perspective, mixing semi-finished products can help save materials and production costs, but if the components that need to be replaced are made of expensive materials, these materials need to meet high requirements in future use, su...
