The modular objective assembly in Hamilton Thorne Ltd.’s Lykos and Xyrcos lasers will be granted a patent, according to a notice of intention that the Beverly, Mass.-based company received from the European Patent Office. Upon approval, the patent can be filed in more than 30 European countries. “The patent on the modular objective assembly utilized in the Lykos and Xyrcos lasers is extremely valuable, as this patent broadly covers the concept of building a laser into a microscope objective,” said President and CEO David Wolf. The company said the assembly is a significant...Read full article

    fluorescence
    Fluorescence is a type of luminescence, which is the emission of light by a substance that has absorbed light or other electromagnetic radiation. Specifically, fluorescence involves the absorption of light at one wavelength and the subsequent re-emission of light at a longer wavelength. The emitted light occurs almost instantaneously and ceases when the excitation light source is removed. Key characteristics of fluorescence include: Excitation and emission wavelengths: Fluorescent materials...
    microscope objective
    The lens located at the object end of a microscope tube. A wide range of objectives is available, including simple achromats, the color-corrected apochromats and the flat-field objectives. Objectives are specified by numerical aperture and magnification (at the standard 160-mm tube length).
    photonics
    The technology of generating and harnessing light and other forms of radiant energy whose quantum unit is the photon. The science includes light emission, transmission, deflection, amplification and detection by optical components and instruments, lasers and other light sources, fiber optics, electro-optical instrumentation, related hardware and electronics, and sophisticated systems. The range of applications of photonics extends from energy generation to detection to communications and...
