In this episode: A mid-IR laser technique facilitates ablation of cancerous tissue, PI and MetaOptics expand their U.S. presence, and a solar cell design breaks records.
The optical system uses a nanostructured birefringent metasurface to detect atmospheric turbulence, which poses a challenge for free-space optical comms systems.
Alluxa offers and manufactures high-performance optical thin films. All of Alluxa's thin-film optical filters and mirrors are hard-coated using a proprietary plasma deposition process on equipment that was designed and built by our team. This allows us to repeatably produce the same high-performance optical thin films in all of our coating chambers.
To explore complex brain circuits, researchers can now use a single fiber to direct light into 1,000 different directions akin to a controllable tiny disco ball within the brain.
Join Professor Erik Gauger as he unveils the APACE project’s revolutionary approach to solar-powered lasers inspired by nature’s own light-harvesting bacteria. Discover how quantum effects and bio-engineered systems could enable direct sunlight-to-laser conversion.
