San Francisco, CA--SPIE's Photonics West 2011 saw the launch of three new products: IPG Photonics' (Oxford, MA) quasi-continuous-wave (QCW) fiber laser designed to compete with YAG lasers in materials-processing applications, Horiba's (Edison, NJ) one-shot simultaneous hyperspectral imaging camera that captures spectral information for dynamic events (see the upcoming March 2011 issue of Laser Focus World), and Hamamatsu's (Bridgewater, NJ) micro PMT (photomultiplier tube) detector, with the same performance as a regular PMT but in a miniature package. Each of these products represent some of the best in the lasers and photonics markets, which had an excellent year in 2010. As you'll see in the video, these products are "enablers" of other technology advances for the biomedical, industrial, defense & security, and consumer marketplaces.
