Photonics West Blends Industry, Innovation, Learning
It’s an annual must-attend event in the photonics industry, and one that for many, truly kicks off the new year. It’s Photonics West, and for more than two decades it has been a symbol of the optimism and excitement for the potential of photonics and light-based technologies.
Each year, researchers, academia and companies from around the world travel to San Francisco’s Moscone Center — this year from January 31 to February 2 — to discuss their work and research, present educational workshops and courses, and showcase innovative products and services.

DoubleDensity™ Optical Top
From: TMC
TMC's DoubleDensity™ CleanTop® Optical Tops offer twice the number of tapped holes as our traditional optical tops. And because we use our existing honeycomb core design, there are no changes to performance specifications. This ergonomic enhancement enables precise location of positioning equipment, less travel for translation stages, and is compatible with standard 1/4-20 on 1 inch and M6 on 25mm patterns. TMC is a unit of AMETEK Ultra Precision Technologies.
