Since its inception, the technology transfer office of the Université de Genève, Unitec, has demonstrated an instrumental role in transferring technologies from the laboratory towards the marketplace by working with start-up companies as well as existing companies in Switzerland, Europe and the rest of the world. On the occasion of its 20th anniversary, Unitec has awarded … Continue reading
Prism assemblies are difficult optical elements to measure. Back reflections from multiple surfaces and multiple channels make laser interferometry incapable of making these measurements. Spectrally Controlled Interferometry (SCI), available from Äפre Instruments, offers an easy-to-use, accurate method to measure these components for the first time. A laser light source interferometer (for example a laser Fizeau) … Continue reading
In recent work appearing in the Physical Review, Dr. Mikhail Prosnikov was investigating Magnetic Raman scattering. To calculate some of these delicate measurements in the experiments, he required stable, weakly-divergent and narrow line lasers. The torus 532 laser from Laser Quantum was the perfect tool to use to acquire accurate data and further his research. To … Continue reading
The Internet of Things (IoT) plays an increasingly important role in the critical infrastructure of both nations and organisations. Worldwide spending on IoT is expected to reach $1.2 trillion in 2022. ID Quantique’s white paper, entitled “Why Quantum Technologies Matter in Critical Infrastructure and IoT”, explores the increasing role of IoT in critical infrastructure and how … Continue reading
Recent data from Maryland shows that using a 660 nm wavelength laser can reduce absorption-mediated damage when performing long-term Brillouin imaging of live cells. The latest research uses the torus 660 nm and the torus 532 nm single longitudinal wave lasers by Laser Quantum. This research demonstrates that live cell imaging may be more efficient … Continue reading
Light Conversion is excited to announce a new universal laser control platform for all Light Conversion lasers. This platform includes a laser user app — a unified way to control all lasers manufactured by Light Conversion. The platform enables better integration with industry 4.0 preventative diagnostics and easier cross-platform system integration into various industrial equipment. … Continue reading
