The ISLA project has developed a number of supporting components for 2 micron fiber laser applications.
The EU-funded Integrated Disruptive Components for 2 µm Fibre Laser (ISLA) project has concluded with positive results.
FIGURE 1. The number of wavelengths used in multispectral analysis impacts spectral unmixing image quality: full-color image (a), primary stain images vs. number of wavelengths (b), relative unmixing quality obtained by quantifying the image contrast vs. number of wavelengths (c), and spectra used for the unmixing (d).
Aided by acousto-optic tunable filters and spectral unmixing, multispectral imaging promises benefits for applications from vital signs monitoring and cancer detection to neuroscience...
