Mid-infrared (MIR) optoacoustic spectroscopy is a well-established technique that is currently being leveraged with modern instrumentation to push boundaries in life sciences research and medical...

October is beautiful in Munich. Hotel room prices relax after the end of Oktoberfest and local parks display autumn colors while the weather is still pleasant. Such was the setting when EPIC held its...

High-power fiber lasers are a versatile and powerful tool for a wide range of industrial applications, from cutting and welding to defense and beyond. Advancements in laser head design, beam...

The meaning of “high power” varies considerably by sector. Indeed, the high powers that industry applications command, for example, differ vastly from those that are considered high power...

Intensity and uniformity can be described using different physical attributes, which makes interpreting requirements somewhat confusing. This article intends to provide an explanation and serve as a...

There is a growing market for imaging systems that provides an immediate, slow-motion view of a process that allows one to see events that happen too quickly for the human eye to perceive or...

Charged-injection device imagers are metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) detectors that can be fabricated using PMOS, NMOS and CMOS integrated circuit technology, and may be configured as a...

The optical materials selected for an optical system depend upon the application, the required system performance and the environment in which the system is to perform; thus the materials’...

Deep learning is a class of machine learning techniques that use multilayered artificial neural networks for automated analysis of signals or data. The name comes from the general structure of deep...

The combination of picosecond and femtosecond pulse durations with the higher beam quality of modern ultrashort-pulse lasers enables production processes that have unrivaled precision. The multitude...
