Thermal Cloak Hides Heat
PARIS, March 27, 2012 — In a new approach to invisibility cloaking, French researchers propose isolating or cloaking objects from sources of heat — essentially “thermal cloaking.”
Photoacoustic Imaging Moves into Clinic
ST. LOUIS, March 26, 2012 — Photoacoustic tomography, which combines the best qualities of ultrasound and light absorption, can now provide clinicians with multicontrast images of biological tissue several inches below the skin’s surface.
Fiberguide Appoints New President
STIRLING, N.J., March 23, 2012 — In her new role, Patricia Seniw will oversee the day-to-day operations and will investigate new growth opportunities at the optical fiber and assemblies manufacturing company.
Oclaro Outsourcing China Operations
SAN JOSE, Calif., March 23, 2012 — The optical communications and laser components provider is outsourcing its Shenzhen, China-based final assembly and test operations to Venture Corp. Ltd.’s Malaysia facility. The transfer, expected to take three years, will free up more than $35...
CU Boulder Imaging Tech Optioned
BOULDER, Colo., March 22, 2012 — The University of Colorado has completed an exclusive option agreement with Double Helix LLC of Boulder to develop its novel 3-D superresolution imaging technique.
Microlens Arrays from a Test Tube
POTSDAM, Germany, March 22, 2012 — Simple calcium carbonate precipitation at ambient conditions can produce microlens arrays of uniform size and focal length, a cheaper alternative to lithographic techniques for making inorganic-based materials.
Optical Drive Etches Graphene Supercapacitors
LOS ANGELES, March 21, 2012 — The search for an optimal electrochemical capacitor has been held up by the need for an electrode with energy density comparable to that of a battery. A novel graphene-based electrode, produced with a standard LightScribe DVD optical drive, could...
Simulations Shed Light on Dark Solitons
XI’AN, China, March 20, 2012 — The occurrence of multiple solitary optical waves, called dark photovoltaic spatial solitons, has now been described in a theoretical model using the beam propagation method.
IR Material Creates Holograms
DURHAM, N.C., March 19, 2012 — A newly developed metamaterial construct could create holograms in the infrared range for the first time.
LightPath, Raytheon Ink $1M IR Optics Contract
ORLANDO, Fla., March 16, 2012 — The optics manufacturer has entered into a $1.1 million research and development contract with Raytheon Vision Systems to develop low-cost infrared optics manufacturing processes.
Cold Atoms in an Optical Lattice Simulate Graphene
ZURICH, March 15, 2012 — A tunable system of ultracold atoms was used to create a honeycomb-like structure similar to that found in graphene. The results may help identify the electronic properties of materials that have yet to be discovered.
Optical Clock Gets New Pendulum
BRAUNSCHWEIG, Germany, March 15, 2012 — An optical clock based on ytterbium ions is so accurate that, if such a timepiece were in use since the universe began, it would now only be off by about 30 seconds.
OSA Local Section in Egypt First in Middle East
WASHINGTON, March 15, 2012 — The Optical Society has established the Alhazen Egyptian OSA Local Section, the society’s first local section in the Middle East.
Optical Material Tailored from DNA
MUNICH, March 14, 2012 — Nanostructured materials built from artificial DNA molecules can modify light in very specific ways and could lead to the development of superlenses.
Probe Method Reveals Rapid Phase Transitions
NASHVILLE, Tenn., March 12, 2012 — As materials undergo phase transitions, ultrafast “sonograms” are revealing the dynamic changes in trillionth-of-a-second intervals.
Wright Returns to Potomac Photonics
LANHAM, Md., March 12, 2012 — Sidney Wright, who previously worked at the laser micromachining manufacturer from 1996 to 2006, rejoins the company as vice president of sales.
Petal-Shaping Inspires Photopatterning Tool
AMHERST, Mass., March 9, 2012 — Drawing inspiration from nature’s ability to shape a petal, a new tool to manufacture three-dimensional shapes easily and cheaply was created using photolithography and printing techniques. The method could advance robotics, tunable micro-optics and...
Optical Chipset Transfers 1 Terabit of Information
LOS ANGELES, March 8, 2012 — A prototype optical chip that uses light rather than electrons sent over wires is the first parallel optical transceiver to transfer data at 1 Tb/s — the equivalent of downloading 500 high-definition movies.
Star Comb Joins Quest for Other Earths
GAITHERSBURG, Md., March 8, 2012 — A new laser frequency comb soon may be able to determine whether life on other planets really exists.
