Holographic Atomic Memory Produces Photons On Demand
A device that is able to generate single photons on demand in groups of several dozen or more could help scientists overcome one of the fundamental obstacles facing the construction of quantum computers. Physicists from the Faculty of Physics at the University of Warsaw (UW) have invented holographic atomic memory.

Spectroscopy Technique Could Be Way to Detect Chemicals in Minuscule Amounts
A microscope that can chemically identify µm-sized particles could one day be used in airports and other high-security venues to rapidly screen people for microscopic amounts of potentially dangerous materials. The technique, which was developed by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Lincoln Laboratory, uses photothermal modulation of Mie scattering (PMMS) to enable concurrent spatial and spectral discrimination of individual µm-sized particles, and uses an imaging configuration to detect multiple species of particles.

Novel BIC Laser Holds Promise for Optical Communications
Researchers at the University of California San Diego have developed a laser based on an unconventional wave physics phenomenon known as bound states in the continuum — BIC. The new BIC lasers have the potential to be developed as high-power lasers for industrial and defense applications. The technology could also revolutionize the development of surface lasers for communications and computing applications.

Laser Additive Manufacturing workshop (LAM®)
February 21-22, 2017 - Hilton Houston North - Houston United States
This year, LAM will have presentations on the latest from researchers and industry presenters on when, where, and how to use laser additive manufacturing. Attendees will learn about all aspects of additive manufacturing, from design, materials, modeling and manufacturing to applications. A new session on micro/nano laser additive manufacturing will cover the latest research in this increasingly popular area of laser manufacturing.
