Video: April 28, 2023 Photonics Hot List

April 28, 2023
Here’s your Photonics Hot List for April 28, 2023, peeking into what’s happening in the exciting world of photonics.

In this episode of Photonics Hot List...

A new laser-based device could transform the processes of testing for and detecting COVID-19 and other diseases—in fact, it could become as simple as breathing.

Quantum dots coupled with optical cavities may allow scientists to generate, and potentially manipulate, quantum states of light. The technique could ultimately boost quantum-enhanced metrology and quantum computing.

By controlling shorter wavelengths—those in the visible to near-infrared—newly developed electro-optic modulators are primed to outshine conventional technology.
