In this edition of the industry's premier weekly newscast: Lasers can transform ordinary metals into supermaterials that soak up light while making water bounce off like a trampoline. Also, we explore a new substance that could replace organic laser dyes, and a new 3-D microscopy technique that’s much faster than current methods for capturing cellular phenomena. Plus the finalists for the Prism Award for optics and optical components.

The quanta image sensor (QIS) concept involves counting individual photons on sensors made of 1 billion or more specialized sub-diffraction-limit photodetectors (called jots). A series of bit planes is generated through high-speed readout, and a kernel or "cubicle" of bits (X,Y, t) is used to create a single output image pixel. The size of the cubicle can be adjusted post-acquisition to optimize image quality. Jots are read out at 1000 fps, for a data rate exceeding 1Tb/s.
