Power Technology’s iMAT® DPSS Laser Platform Ideal for Raman Spectroscopy
Power Technology, Inc.
Power Technology’s iMAT® series of DPSS lasers are inherently beneficial to the Raman Spectroscopy industry because of its patented technology which inherently produces actively stabilized single frequency wavelengths at 532 nm and 1064 nm. This revolutionary technology earned international recognition by winning the Frost & Sullivan European Diode-Pumped Solid State Laser Technology Innovation of the Year award in 2009.

The Optical Society's Photonics 2014: 12th International Conference on Fiber Optics and Photonics is a biennial event that allows researchers from around the world to showcase a wide range of photonics work, from fiber optics and materials for photonic devices to next generation optical components and devices for optical networks.
Several researchers are scheduled to speak during the event; among them, Philip J. Russell of the Max-Planck Institute who will discuss scientific applications of microstructured optical fiber.
The conference will focus on fiber and guided wave photonics; lasers and nonlinear optics; nanophotonics, plasmonics and metamaterials; quantum optics, information and processing; optical communication and networks; biophotonics; and photonic materials and devices.
