Max Planck, University of Ottawa Collaboration Extended Five Years
OTTAWA, Ontario, Oct. 22, 2020 — The Max Planck Society announced an extended, five-year round of funding for the Max Planck—University of Ottawa Centre for Extreme and Quantum Photonics (MPC-EQP). The international collaboration supports workshops, student and researcher...
IR Imaging, AO in Spotlight as 3 Scientists Awarded Nobel Prize in Physics
WASHINGTON, D.C., Oct. 6, 2020 — Laureates Roger Penrose, Reinhard Genzel, and Andrea Ghez have been awarded the 2020 Nobel Prize in physics for discoveries related to black hole formation (Penrose) and of a black hole at the center of the Milky Way (Genzel and Ghez). Penrose,...
A History of the Laser: 1960 - 2019
Jun 6, 2019 — In 2020, the laser turns 60. This is a timeline of some of the more notable scientific accomplishments related to light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (laser). An interactive version of the laser timeline is available, as well as...
Quantum Applications Jump Forward with Photonics
Nov 26, 2018 — Quantum technologies encompass diverse fields that include computing, cryptography, and sensing. Quantum theory, first presented by Max Planck at the turn of the 19th century and followed by the theoretical foundation developed by Albert Einstein,...
Veeco Epitaxy System Wins Max Planck Offer
PLAINVIEW, N.Y., Sept. 17, 2018 — Veeco Instruments Inc. has announced that its dual chamber GEN10 automated molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) cluster system won the tender offer by the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics (MPI-MSP) to support world-class research on complex...
Camera Lens Developed by Startup K-Lens
SAARBRÜCKEN, Germany, April 10, 2018 — Startup company K-Lens has developed a lens, based on a research project from the Max Planck Institute for Informatics and Saarland University, that allows photographers to benefit from the advantages of 3D technology using their existing equipment....
Optical Fiber ‘Nanospikes’ Effectively Trap, Focus Laser Light
ERLANGEN, Germany, March 14, 2016 — Using laser light to manipulate a glass optical fiber tapered to a sharp point smaller than a speck of dust, in the middle of an optical fiber with a hollow core, has been demonstrated. Optical forces cause the sharp point, or...
Photoresponsive Supramolecular Networks Self-Assemble on Graphene
Mar 10, 2016 — Although challenged by the poor ordering of the thin layers on top of the electrodes, organic photovoltaics have shown great promise for large-scale, cost-effective solar power generation. Utilizing self-assembly on atomically flat, transparent...
