Industrial Photocatalyst Harnesses the Visible Spectrum
Industrial Photocatalyst Harnesses the Visible Spectrum
Researchers at the University of Johannesburg have developed a photocatalyst that can harness the visible portion of light given by the sun. This differentiates the photocatalyst from others, like titanium dioxide, which can capture only the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum. The advancement points to the newly developed photocatalyst’s utility for multiple industrial applications where sunlight or electrical light is available to facilitate chemical processes. Notably, the researchers said, the photocatalyst could be used for bulk water treatment.

Skin-Like Microfiber Grating Gauges Cardiovascular Wellness
Researchers from Nanjing University have developed a hemodynamics monitoring technique that relies on a configurable, skin-like microfiber Bragg grating group to deliver information on the real dynamics of the systemic cardiovascular system, such as heartbeat, angiectasis, and pulse wave propagation. The system overcomes common bottlenecks to biophotonic sensing mechanisms that use commercial fiber Bragg grating (FBG) devices.

Precision Automation Principles for the Optimal Testing and Packaging of PIC Devices Precision Automation Principles for the Optimal Testing and Packaging of PIC Devices
Thu, Sep 21, 2023 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Production-scale testing of silicon photonic devices continues to be a challenge due to the multi-degree-of freedom, high-precision, optical alignments required for wafer- and die-level testing. Wide variances in chip designs and coupling features complicate test procedures, making it difficult to identify a system capable of producing repeatable measurements across various topologies. Brett Heintz of Aerotech Inc. provides a guide for selecting precision motion equipment to minimize the impact of positioning errors on optical alignment test results. Presented by Aerotech.

The Past, Present, and Future of Optical Fiber The Past, Present, and Future of Optical Fiber
Tue, Sep 26, 2023 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Hair-thin strands of glass, intrinsically transparent and strong, connect today’s world in ways that are unimaginable even 20 years ago. Over the past 50 years, glass optical fibers have advanced from passive low-loss conduits for light to active light-amplifying hosts to a myriad of nano-to-macro-structuring of core-clad combinations. John Ballato of Clemson University discusses this history as a looking glass into the future of optical fibers and its symbiosis with light to address the question: What can the next 50 years bring? Sponsored by Fibercore and Lumatec GmbH.
