• Newport Introduces Matched Pair of FemtoOptics Chirped Mirrors

    July 19, 2016 Newport Corporation is introducing a matched pair of 1 inch diameter ultrafast chirped mirrors, specifically designed for convenient dispersion compensation of 10 fs and shorter laser pulses. The high reflectivity of these mirrors supports high th... Read More
  • A 5 Minutes Journey Alongside a 3.4 km Long X-Ray Laser

    July 19, 2016 In a new tunnel flight film, you can glide through the 3.4-km length of the European XFEL, an X-ray laser being constructed for research in the metropolitan Hamburg area. From one end of the facility to the other, you’ll get an impression of not o... Read More
  • Smart LED Bulbs Could Connect Internet of Things

    July 18, 2016 Researchers at Disney Research and ETH Zurich have demonstrated that consumer-grade light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs can, with some modifications, do double duty - both illuminating a room and providing a communications link for devices in that ro... Read More

  • New Phosphor for Next-Generation Fluorescent and LED Lighting

    July 06, 2016 Researchers from KU Leuven, the University of Strasbourg, and CNRS have discovered a new phosphor that could make next-generation fluorescent and LED lighting even cheaper and more efficient. The team used highly luminescent clusters of silver ato... Read More
  • Injectable 3-D Printed Micro Camera

    July 05, 2016 German engineers have created a camera no bigger than a grain of salt that could change the future of health imaging and clandestine surveillance. Using 3-D printing, researchers from the University of Stuttgart built a three-lens camera, and fit ... Read More
  • Silicon Optical Antenna Scatters Light as a Prism

    July 04, 2016 Researchers have fabricated a silicon optical antenna that is somewhat like an extremely small, special kind of prism. This is because when a red light shines on this optical antenna, the light turns right, but when the light is another color such... Read More
  • Imaging at the Speed of Light

    July 01, 2016 Researchers have improved upon a new camera technology that can image at speeds about 100 times faster than today’s commercial cameras while also capturing more image frames. This new technology opens a host of new possibilities for studying extre... Read More
  • Researchers Developed New Tool to Detect and Measure Polarization of Light

    June 30, 2016 Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a new tool for detecting and measuring the polarization of light based on a single spatial sampling of the light, rather than the multiple samples required by previous technologies. T... Read More
