Chroma’s Filters Enable Groundbreaking Research
Two recently published papers detailing groundbreaking biological research used Chroma components in the experimental setup. The first paper is entitled, “Dynamic conformational changes of a tardigrade group-3 late embryogenesis abundant protein modulate membrane biophysical properties.” The cells were photographed using RFP filters and GFP filters from Chroma Technology. The second paper is called, “Detection of … Continue reading
How Gain Flattening Filters Optimize EDFA Module Design
In optical communications, Erbium-Doped Fiber Amplifiers (EDFAs) are pivotal for their amplification capabilities. However, non-uniform gain profiles often limit their performance across desired wavelength ranges. This limitation can be addressed by integrating Gain Flattening Filters (GFFs). GFFs are instrumental in optimizing the design of EDFAs. They can make sure that there is a uniform gain … Continue reading
IL Photonics Visits LTB Headquarters in Berlin

Custom Diffraction Gratings: Design and Applications
Theory of custom diffraction gratings Diffraction gratings are some of the most well-known diffractive optical elements (DOEs) and are used in countless laser applications. A simple diffraction grating is any surface that has a periodic modulation in intensity or phase. Such modulation creates a diffraction effect on coherent light passing through the grating, resulting in … Continue reading
