Enter Class 1 laser products — lasers that are so safe that the user doesn’t require specific laser safety training or protective eyewear. Some precautions still exist, though.When purchasing an industrial laser system, the astute buyer will look for a Class 1 laser product — a system where the laser beam hazard is completely enclosed and there is no potential laser...Photonics HandbookIndustrial Lasers: An Introduction to Process Qualification: The step from successfully demonstrating a new laser process on a limited number of samples under laboratory conditions, to scaling that process up for high-volume industrial use is a big one. In particular, it’s necessary to determine how variations in process parameters affect end results, so that acceptable process input and operating ranges can be determined.Materials processing with lasers is actually a broad term for a diverse range of applications. The major categories of these uses, and the lasers that service them, are summarized Table 1. At one...Photonics HandbookFluorescence Lifetime Imaging: Choosing the Best Approach: Fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM), which measures the spatial distribution of the fluorescence decay, can be achieved either in the time or in the frequency domain. Each approach exhibits advantages and disadvantages, depending on the type of light detector and acquisition method employed.The term fluorescence is often applied as a synonym for photoluminescence, although luminescence actually covers fluorescence and phosphorescence. Both of these terms describe the process of...Photonics HandbookWEBINARSThe Future of Imaging: Three PerspectivesPresenters: Professor Stephen Boppart The Future of Healthcare With Optical Biomedical Imaging A medical doctor and professor at the University of Illinois, Boppart's...Photonics.com 12/14/2011Paving the Way Toward Ultrahigh-Speed and High-Resolution 3D Optical MeasurementsThis webinar will discuss the concept of liquid lenses, which involves controlling the shape of a liquid to alter the properties of a lens, and how liquid lens technologies can provide fast and...Photonics.com 10/15/2020Imaging Applications in Quantum ResearchQuantum technology, an exciting and evolving field combining physics and engineering, applies the properties of quantum mechanics to next-generation computing applications.
