Lamda Guard, a company based in Atlantic Canada, has signed an agreement with leading aircraft manufacturer Airbus to test a breakthrough innovation designed to deflect unwanted bright light or laser sources from impacting jetliner flight paths, and causing pilot disorientation or injury.
ActLight SA and A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics (IME) of Singapore have successfully built the "Dynamic Photodiode" using A*STAR IME's photonics technology. ActLight's patented Dynamic Photodiode technology introduces a new way of using a photodiode providing advantages such as high output signal and low noise. Due to its high internal gain the Dynamic Photodiode eliminates the need for any amplifier and can interact directly with CMOS circuits.
Today, QD Vision, Inc., the leading manufacturer of quantum dot optical components for LCD products, announced that Top Victory Electronics (Taiwan) Co., Ltd. (TPV), the world’s largest PC monitor manufacturer and fourth largest LCD TV manufacturer, will be showcasing monitors featuring QD Vision’s Color IQTM optics during COMPUTEX 2014, June 3-7, in Taipei, Taiwan.
Nine pioneering scientists have been named this year's recipients of the Kavli Prizes -- prizes that recognize scientists for their seminal advances in astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience. This year's laureates were selected for pioneering the theory of cosmic inflation, for transformative contributions to the field of nano-optics and for the discovery of specialized brain networks for memory and cognition.
For his pioneering work in optics, Stefan W. Hell, an American Chemical Society (ACS) member for eight years, was named one of three winners of the Kavli Prize in Nanoscience. The prizes, which consist of a cash award of $1 million in each of three fields, were announced today by The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.
Three University of Manchester scientists have been awarded esteemed Wolfson Research Merit awards by the Royal Society.
Researchers from CIC nanoGUNE, in collaboration with ICFO and Graphenea, introduce a platform technology based on optical antennas for trapping and controlling light with the one-atom-thick material graphene.
Yang Xiang, PhD, assistant professor of neurobiology, and Gang Han, PhD, assistant professor of biochemistry & molecular pharmacology, have received a three-year, $900,000 grant from the Human Frontiers Science Program to lead an international team of scientists in the development and implementation of a new optogenetic platform that can remotely activate neurons inside a free-moving organism.
Two-photon excitation fluorescence is growing in popularity in the bioimaging field but is limited by fluorophores' extremely low two-photon absorption cross-section. The researcher Dr. Guowei Lu and co-workers from State Key Laboratory for Mesoscopic Physics, Department of Physics, Peking University, are endeavoring to develop efficient fluorescent probes with improved two-photon fluorescence (TPF) performance.
EMCORE Corporation, a leading provider of compound semiconductor-based components and subsystems for the fiber optics and space solar power markets, announced today that it has expanded its recently launched DOCSIS 3.1 laser line with the release of the Model 1616A DOCSIS 3.1, 1310 nm DFB Laser Module for CATV (Cable Television) applications.
