DOE Announces Solid-State Lighting Funding
WASHINGTON, D.C., June 17, 2016 — The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has announced the selection of nine solid-state lighting (SSL) projects to receive funding focusing on core technology research, product development and U.S. manufacturing. Cree Inc. received $1.5 million in funding for its high-efficacy, multifunctional SSL platform. GE Global Research was awarded $1.2 million for its highly integrated modular LED luminaire. For its narrow emitting red phosphors to improve PC LED efficacy, Lumenari Inc. received $1.5
White-Light Therapy Improves Depressive Symptoms in Cancer Survivors
NEW YORK, March 18, 2016 — Light therapy has been found to decrease depressive symptoms and normalize circadian rhythms among cancer survivors. Researchers from Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Northwestern University in Chicago, the University of Iowa, University of...
Headwall, Bratney to Collaborate on Food Imaging
FITCHBURG, Mass., Nov. 24, 2015 — Hyperspectral imagers from Headwall Photonics Inc. will be integrated into machine vision systems for food handling from Bratney Companies of Des Moines, Iowa. Bratney's systems help sort and grade high-value nuts and whole food products, reducing...
Photonics Education: Where is Everybody?
Sep 14, 2015 — John-Kevin Frazee put himself through community college while working for minimum wage at a grocery store. After graduating in 2011, he took jobs growing laser crystals and processing LED wafers. By age 23, he'd earned enough to buy a house. "With...
New Approach to Creating Flexible Waveguides
AMES, Iowa, Feb. 24, 2014 — Creating flexible optical waveguides has long been a challenge, as it requires the self-contradicting task of shaping a highly soft material into thin and long structures that are also self-sustaining. A new fabrication technique developed by...
NSF grants bolster tech training programs
Oct 1, 2013 — The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded funding to photonics education programs with the goal of increasing the number of qualified technicians available in the workforce. $3.5 million in grant funding has gone to the National Center for...
