Photonics Spectra Webinars

Optical filters can discretely transmit or reject specific wavelengths or ranges of wavelengths of light. Utilizing this capability in photonics-based instruments creates the need for a better understanding of optical filter design considerations and how specifications influence performance and...

The interaction between photons and acoustic phonons within materials, first described by Leon Brillouin, has been widely investigated to characterize the mechanical and physical properties of samples. To translate this technology to biomedical applications in which mechanical properties are often...

Frequency comb technology has emerged as a cornerstone of modern science and technology, revolutionizing various fields with its unparalleled precision and versatility. The last few years have seen extraordinary progress in the maturation of this technology, expanding the achievable wavelengths...

Realizing photonic quantum technologies, such as an optical quantum computer or a quantum communication link between distant superconducting qubits, will require the development of novel photonic components. Monolithic silicon or silicon nitride photonic platforms are falling short with respect to...

Microdisplays are essential for wearable AR/VR/MR devices, such as smart glasses. Emissive microdisplays, such as OLEDs or micro-LEDs, provide significant advantages in terms of form factor and power consumption versus their non-emissive counterparts, such as liquid crystal on silicon and digital...

David Biss of Optikos navigates the trade-offs that must be considered when developing the architecture of a microscope. In the vast expanse of life sciences, designing an OEM microscopy platform isn't a one-size-fits-all endeavor. This presentation delves into the common decision points and trade...
