Fiber Laser Welding Cuts Costs and Improves Results Most traditional — i.e., nonlaser — welding techniques currently in use are variations of arc welding. In these methods, two pieces of metal are first brought into contact or close...
EDITORIAL
Life Sciences Come Alive With 3D Imaging At one time people thought the Earth was flat, and there was no evidence presented to them to contradict that. With this belief came a limited view of their surroundings. In more recent times, a two-dimensional look at things such as single cells and the inner workings of the human body has provided similarly limited views. But with the advancement of 3D imaging technology, medical and life...

Lasers Reveal Vibration Patterns of Big Ben For whom the bell tolls” took on a new meaning for a group of U.K. researchers as they “vibration mapped” the famous London clock bell, the Great Bell — more commonly known as Big Ben — that resides inside the Elizabeth Tower at the north end of the Palace of Westminster. Using two Polytec PSV-500 3D scanning laser Doppler vibrometers, the team from the Advanced...

Prospects Abound for Photonics in Space For European companies, the space market has always been a key avenue for photonics technologies. That’s due in large part to the relatively short time to market using the tender system enabled by the European Space Agency (ESA), the ability to bypass volume manufacturing roadmaps and the strong demand for edge technologies and highly reliable components. Photonics is critical to reducing...
