MIDDLEFIELD, Conn., March 5, 2013 — The Optical Systems Div. of Zygo Corp. has received an order from Laboratoire des Materiaux Avances to manufacture a series of very-high-precision optics for the European Advanced Virgo project.
IR Digital Holography Lets Firefighters See Through Flames
ROME, Feb. 26, 2013 — Finding a person hidden in a blazing, smoky fire should become a little easier for firefighters, thanks to a new lensless infrared digital holographic imaging technology that can “see” flames.
Stuart Freedman, Renowned Nuclear Physicist, Dies
BERKELEY, Calif., Nov. 21, 2012 — Stuart Freedman, an investigator of fundamental physical laws and a nuclear physicist with Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and the University of California, Berkeley, died unexpectedly Nov. 9 while attending a conference in Santa Fe, N.M. He...
Unscrambling Scattered Light to Retrieve Sharp Images
ENSCHEDE, Netherlands, and FLORENCE, Italy, Nov. 7, 2012 — A noninvasive method that unscrambles scattered light to retrieve sharp images of objects hidden behind an opaque screen could have important applications in biological tissue imaging.
UN Committee Endorses International Year of Light in 2015
PARIS, Oct. 26, 2012 — A resolution declaring 2015 as the International Year of Light was endorsed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and backed by 28 other nations, at the organization’s 190th session in Paris last week. Its...
EPIC: PV industry growing strong
Oct 1, 2012 — Revenues in the photovoltaics (PV) industry reached a record high of $93 billion in 2011, a 13.4 percent gain over 2010 – and 150 percent over 2009 – according to a recent report by EPIC, the Paris-based European Photonics Industry...
New robot handles with care
Oct 1, 2012 — Don’t you just hate it when your personal robot makes a mess instead of an omelet, crushing the eggs when it tries to pick them up? Well, a new five-digit, human-size robotic hand prototype could put an end to all that. Thanks to optical and...
Reflected light helps preserve frescoes
L’AQUILA, VERONA and FLORENCE, Italy – A new imaging technique that works somewhat like thermography in reverse uses reflected mid-infrared light to further refine the restoration of old masters. The powerful yet safe imaging tool for artwork diagnostics, called thermal...
Robotic camera mimics eye movement
ATLANTA – Piezoelectric materials that allow a robot’s camera eye to replicate the muscle motion of a human eye could help make safer, more effective robotic tools for MRI-guided surgery and robotic rehabilitation. The biologically inspired...
Merging Microscopy Methods Sharpens Brain Imaging
SESTO FIORENTINO, Italy, Aug. 28, 2012 — Technology that combines the best features of two microscopy methods yields images 100 percent sharper than those acquired through conventional light-sheet-based microscopy (LSM).
Phase-Shifted Flat Lens Creates Perfect Image
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 24, 2012 — By moving the phase shifting of light to the surface of a lens instead of creating phase delays as it propagates through a material, Harvard engineers have created an ultrathin, flat lens that could potentially replace bulk components in optical...
ProPhotonix Hires Global Sales Team
SALEM, N.H., Aug. 10, 2012 — To take advantage of emerging opportunities in North America and Europe, the laser diode module and LED systems manufacturer hired five people to join its global sales team.
Robotic Hand Gets Thumbs Up
SAARBRÜCKEN, Germany, Aug. 7, 2012 — The first human-sized, five-fingered robotic hand also has a brain: it has the cognitive power to learn to grasp and manipulate a range of delicate and oddly shaped objects just as humans do.
Robotic Camera Mimics Eye Movement
ATLANTA, July 9, 2012 — Piezoelectric materials that allow a robot’s camera eye to replicate the muscle motion of a human eye could help make safer, more effective robotic tools for MRI-guided surgery and robotic rehabilitation.
First heralded single photon generated from silicon
SAN DIEGO – For the first time, a heralded single photon has been generated from a silicon chip. The discovery – made by a consortium of researchers from the University of California, San Diego, the National Institute of Standards and Technology...
Reflected Light Helping Preserve Frescoes
L’AQUILA, Italy, June 19, 2012 — A new imaging technique works somewhat like thermography in reverse to further refine the art restoration process.
ESO Approves Extremely Large Telescope
GARCHING, Germany, June 13, 2012 — The world’s biggest eye in the sky is a step closer to becoming reality. Plans for the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) were approved by the ESO Council pending confirmation of four ad referendum votes. The project is set to commence early...
First Heralded Single Photon Generated from Silicon
SAN DIEGO, May 2, 2012 — For the first time, a heralded single photon was generated from a silicon chip.
Optical Technique Detects Malaria Early
TRIESTE, Italy, April 19, 2012 — Rapid detection of malaria, particularly in remote parts of the world, is not always possible because current methods are slow and require precise instrumentation and highly skilled microscopic analysis. Now, using a technique called secondary...
Glass-Based LEDs Go UV
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Feb. 28, 2012 — Inorganic LEDs that emit in the difficult-to-achieve ultraviolet range were produced by embedding nanocrystals in glass, a step toward using such devices in biomedical applications.
OFC/NFOEC to Address Datacom Trends
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17, 2012 — The leading conference for the optical networking industry will expand its 2012 program and exhibitor participation to spotlight the growing role of fiber optics technology in datacom, cloud computing and data center networking to meet bandwidth and...
L-3 Buying Kollmorgen Electro-Optical for $210M
NEW YORK, Dec. 13, 2011 — L-3 Communications announced today it is broadening its base in the electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) market by acquiring the Kollmorgen Electro-Optical unit of Danaher Corp for $210 million in cash. Northampton, Mass.-based Kollmorgen...
Neutrino Study Contradicts Faster-Than-Light Findings
ROME, Nov. 21, 2011 — A new study contradicts findings earlier this fall that neutrinos could travel faster than light. At the end of September, scientists in the OPERA experiment at the Gran Sasso laboratory in Italy said neutrinos from Switzerland’s CERN research...
