Thailand Flooding Hits Optics Industry
BANGKOK, Nov. 2, 2011 — A number of optical components OEMs are exercising contingency plans after one of their major suppliers said it would be closed for the remainder of the quarter because of the severe flooding in Thailand. High-technology products such as integrated...
Zinc Oxide Microwires Boost LED Performance
ATLANTA, Nov. 2, 2011 — Through the use of zinc oxide microwires, the efficiency at which gallium nitride LEDs convert electricity to ultraviolet light has improved significantly. The LEDs are believed to be the first whose performance has been enhanced by the creation of...
“Optical switch” could make quantum computers more stable
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – An optical switch that allows one photon to control the quantum state of another could yield a quantum computer that offers stability and control. Quantum particles have an odd property that enables them to be in “superposition”;...
Aspheric Optics: Ask for What You Want
Nov 1, 2011 — Advances in production make aspheres more readily available and usable at shorter wavelengths, but the methodology is distinctly different from that of spherical optics. It is vital to understand the cost impact of various specifications — and...
Beeson Promoted to Semrock GM
ROCHESTER, N.Y., Nov. 1, 2011 — Robert Beeson was selected to succeed Michael Cumbo as general manager of optical filter manufacturer Semrock Inc., the company announced. Beeson was part of the Semrock team during its formative years in optical telecommunications, having...
Carl Zeiss Receives Order, Licenses Technique
Nov 1, 2011 — To meet immediate deployment requirements, the German army has ordered panoramic reconnaissance and surveillance systems from Carl Zeiss Optronics GmbH of Oberkochen, Germany, for use in protecting forward operating bases (FOBs) in northern...
Could optofluidics solve the energy challenge?
Nov 1, 2011 — Optofluidics could be poised to revolutionize energy production, according to Demetri Psaltis, dean of the engineering school at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland. Optofluidics is the combination of...
Designer surfaces rewrite laws of refraction and reflection
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – A new technique called phase discontinuity helps light break the age-old laws of reflection and refraction – and could lead to the development of flat lenses that can focus images with no aberrations. For centuries, it has been recognized that...
Doing What Needs to Be Done
Nov 1, 2011 — I work in an office, but I have a real fondness for the noise and commotion of a manufacturing plant – the energy and activity of things being made – so I was excited to attend the inaugural Lasers for Manufacturing Event (LME), produced...
EOS Receives Space Contract
Nov 1, 2011 — Electro Optics Systems (EOS) Holding Ltd. of Canberra, Australia, has been awarded a $3 million Department of Defence Concept Technology Demonstrator contract to demonstrate that its electro-optic space surveillance sensors integrate and operate...
Expansion Seen for Photonic Crystals
Nov 1, 2011 — Market According to a report from the London- based companiesandmarkets.com titled “Photonic Crystals: Materials, Technologies and Global Markets,” the photonic crystals market is growing rapidly and is expected to have a compound annual...
Holographic lithography boosts plasmonic nanogap array production
HOBOKEN, N.J. – A technique based on methods from holographic lithography has been developed to demonstrate a new approach for scaling up the fabrication of plasmonic nanogap arrays while simultaneously reducing costs and infrastructure. A team led by Dr. Stefan...
JDSU Appoints Keith Barnes to Board of Directors
MILPITAS, Calif., Nov. 1, 2011 — JDSU, a technology solutions company, has appointed Keith Barnes to its board of directors. "We are particularly pleased to complement JDSU's board with a senior executive who brings extensive test and measurement industry knowledge and global...
