Inspired by customer demand, Holo/Or is proud to present their latest edition to glass cutting optics – the EdgeCleave module. This solution, based on Holo/Or’s 3D multifocal DOEs, can be used for cutting of glass chamfers at an angle, on curves, and other non-trivial cutting schemes. The EdgeCleave glass chamfering module focuses an incident single mode laser into … Continue reading
A greateyes CCD camera was integral to the success of the study “Spectral and Spatial Resolution of an Extreme Ultraviolet Broadband Imaging Spectrometer.” A research team utilized the greateyes GE2048 512BI UV1 camera to advance the analysis of laser-produced plasma sources of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light. The spectrometer, coupled with their high-resolution CCD, provided critical … Continue reading
You may have already heard about ID Quantique (IDQ) and SK Broadband’s deployment of the world’s first country-wide, quantum-safe network infrastructure in South Korea. Let’s take a deep look at what is now one of the largest and most sophisticated commercial quantum communication networks. Here’s why this matters: Long term resiliency against “Harvest Now, Decrypt … Continue reading
If you’re designing high-energy ultrafast laser systems, then you’ll know that mirrors are one of the key optical components. Engineers face unique challenges when working with ultrafast lasers. Minimizing distortion and withstanding extreme power as well as reflectivity are all critical considerations in ensuring accurate and longer lasting functionality. High-intensity pulses can damage components, distort … Continue reading
Combining state-of-the-art LED illumination with innovative optical filter configurations can significantly improve the quality and efficiency of your imaging experiments. When choosing filter sets for your experiments, it’s not just the optical properties of your fluorophores you need to consider. To enhance speed and contrast, the latest microscope technology has also introduced options in terms … Continue reading
Superlum Diodes is pleased to announce the launch of a new SLD at 1050 nm: S1050.85.7. This device opens a new range of Superlum SLDs emitting in the 1000–1100 nm spectral range. Due to the very wide spectrum, these devices may be of particular interest for high-resolution Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and other similar low-coherence … Continue reading
