EUV Sources Combine to Track Molecular Dissociation
EUV Sources Combine to Track Molecular Dissociation

Reportedly for the first time, scientists have combined a broadband extreme-ultraviolet probe pulse from high-order harmonic generation with a free-electron laser pump pulse to observe photodissociation pathways leading to fragments in different quantum states. The team, led by Christian Ott at the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, temporally resolved a quantum mechanical dissociation mechanism of a specific O2+ state into two competing channels by measuring the resonances of ionic and neutral fragments.  Read Article

Optofluidic Fabrication Yields Any-Environment Reflective Display

As an improvement on current reflective displays, researchers led by the International Joint Laboratory of Optofluidic Technology and System at South China Normal University, developed a reflective display fabrication technique that yielded a display with the desired qualities — fast switching speed, color, bistability, and viewing angle — that commonly fall short in current reflective display technologies in such strong-light environments. The approach is based on the previously demonstrated electro-microfluidic assembly of particles (eMAP) strategy.  Read Article 
Lasers, Spectroscopy, and OCT Cut Bone Safely
Lasers, Spectroscopy, and OCT Cut Bone Safely

Researchers at the University of Basel have developed a system that increases the safety and precision of lasers used to cut bone in surgical settings. The system is able to cut bone, control the cutting depth, and differentiate between tissues, using a cutting laser, imaging system, and spectroscopy.  Read Article

Laser Application for Display Manufacturing

Tue, Jan 16, 2024 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EST
Displays are windows into the connected world as nearly every consumer device today has a display and a smartphone without one is impossible to imagine. To produce state-of-the-art displays lasers must be utilized, especially to create high-end and high-resolution designs. Dr. Oliver Haupt from Coherent focuses on OLED displays for smart phones as well as the adoption of OLED displays in the IT sector. He also addresses the incremental market opportunity for MicroLED displays from the very small range in AR to the very large 4K TV market. Finally, he explains how over the last few years more and more UV short wavelengths lasers have been required and implemented in production due to the display material combinations, increase of active display areas, and pixel sizes down to the micron level.

The almighty nanoparticle known as the quantum dot is enjoying its moment in the sun — after innovations involving its discovery and development earned three photochemists a share of the Nobel Prize in chemistry earlier this fall. Peter Lodahl, head of the Quantum Photonics Group at the University of Copenhagen/NielsBohr Institute, director of the Danish National Research Foundation Center for Hybrid Quantum Networks, and founder of Sparrow Quantum, sheds light on the durability of quantum dots. Sparrow, a developer of quantum light-matter interfaces, has pioneered quantum dot-based technology to support the pursuit of at-scale photonic quantum computing.
