European Project Takes Aim at Deep Body Imaging
MILAN, July 10, 2023 — The fastMOT project, which seeks to develop a fast-gated, ultrahigh quantum efficiency single-photon sensor, will receive €3 million ($3.29 million) in funding. The resulting sensor will enable deep body imaging with diffuse optics. Implemented in the new Multifunctional Optical Tomograph, the light sensor will achieve a 100× improvement of signal-to-noise ratio compared to existing sensors. The project is to receive €2.49 million ($2.73 million) from the European
Fiber Technology Invented in 1970s Enters Quantum Age
CASTELLDEFELS, Spain, Dec. 5, 2022 — Following its development by a team at Corning in 1970, low-loss optical fiber became the best means to efficiently transport information from one place to another over long distances without loss of information. However, with the exponential...
Frequency Converters Take Big Step Toward Miniaturizing Lasers
NEW YORK, Aug. 30, 2022 — Researchers from Columbia University and Politecnico di Milano used an atomically thin material to build microscopic color converters. The advancement is a first step toward replacing the standard materials used in today’s tunable lasers,...
Joint Research Lab for Smart Glasses to Launch With $50M Investment
MILAN, July 20, 2022 — Politenico di Milano and Milan-based lens technology and eyewear manufacturer EssilorLuxottica will establish a joint smart eyewear lab, aimed at designing smart glasses technology. The partnership provides initial investments of over €50...
Integrated Photonics Processor Outperforms Wireless Systems
MILAN, July 13, 2022 — An international team led by researchers at the Politecnico di Milano has devised a way to separate and distinguish optical beams even when the beams are superimposed, and even when the form in which the beams arrive at a destination is drastically...
Teledyne FLIR Wins $14M Defense Contract: Week in Brief: 05/27/22
ELKRIDGE, Md., May 27, 2022 — Teledyne FLIR Defense, part of Teledyne Technologies Inc., secured a $14 million contract to deliver its Black Hornet 3 Personal Reconnaissance Systems to the U.S. Army. The advanced nano-UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) are being used to augment...
Optical Technique Measures Chirality Over Broad Wavelength Range
MILAN, July 27, 2021 — A research team from Politecnico di Milano and the University of Bayreuth (Germany) has developed an approach for the quick measurement of chirality across a broad wavelength range. In molecules, chirality occurs when molecules contain the same...
EU Creates Faster High-Capacity Internet Networks via Photonics
MILAN, Aug. 3, 2018 — EU Scientists are harnessing next-generation lasers to create light-speed broadband connections and to remove the data bottlenecks that could cause the internet to grind to a halt as demand increases. The EU-funded researchers from nine countries...
Laser Pulses, Class of New Materials Show Potential for Energy Efficiency
TRIESTE, Italy, May 17, 2017 — An experiment that involves the cutting edge of condensed matter physics and materials science could make superconductivity at room temperature and more efficient energy usage a reality. An international collaboration, led by the scientists of...
GoPhoton! Brings Photonics to the Masses
BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 28, 2014 — While photonics enables so many aspects of our daily lives, it remains an unknown science for many. A new outreach project intends to change that and make photonics a household word. GoPhoton!, founded by the European Centers for Outreach in...
European Organizations Join Forces on BabyLux Project
BERLIN, BARCELONA, Spain, and MILAN, Feb. 19, 2014 — Several organizations from Italy, Spain, Germany and Denmark have come together with the common goal of reducing the risk of brain damage in premature babies from 25 to 20 percent.
Strain ‘bridges’ move germanium closer to lasing
ZURICH – Germanium, a semiconductor with far greater light conduction possibilities than silicon, is a step closer to providing a foundation for the light-based computers of tomorrow, thanks to a European team working to make the material laser-compatible....
Germanium Made Laser-Compatible
ZURICH, April 23, 2013 — A manufacturing technique that alters the optical properties of germanium — an element incompatible with lasers — has rendered the semiconductor laser-compatible through high tensile strain. The discovery could enable microprocessor components to...
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...
First Heralded Single Photon Generated from Silicon
