| | Sponsored | | HÜBNER Photonics introduces a new series of CW ultra-low noise, single-frequency fiber laser systems. The AmpheiaTM Series lasers offer output powers of up to 50 W at 1064 nm and 5W at 532 nm. With low relative intensity noise (RIN) and <100 kHz linewidth, the lasers are specifically suited for quantum research as well as semiconductor inspection and laser pumping. |

| | | | | | Traditional lenses made of germanium tend to cost hundreds or thousands of dollars and can’t be repaired when damaged—but a lower-cost sulfur polymer lens option is about to become a gamechanger for infrared (IR) thermal imaging cameras because it can be mass produced, repaired, and recycled. |
