3D Printing Provides Building Blocks of Healing
3D Printing Provides Building Blocks of Healing
A group of researchers has demonstrated that assembling a network of tiny, approximately 1.5-mm3 blocks with the aid of optical technology can be an effective way to accelerate healing in tissue and bone. Using Lego blocks as inspiration, they even learned that filling these blocks with different materials could direct specific healing to where it was needed most.

Photonic Integrated Circuit Chip Pairs with Metasurfaces to Retain and Improve Light Controllability in Optical Devices
A team of researchers at Penn State has integrated metasurfaces onto a photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip. The design maintains high light controllability, allowing guided waves inside the PIC to drive the metasurfaces, enabling routing light among different metasurfaces.

Researchers Miniaturize Imaging Device Using 3D Microprinted Camera Lens
Researchers from the University of Adelaide and the University of Stuttgart have developed an ultrathin endoscope small enough to scan images from inside the blood vessels of mice. In humans, the scope will help scientists better understand causes of heart attack and disease progression and, subsequently, methods for treatment and prevention.

MKS/Newport - DL Series Optical Delay Line Linear Stages DL Series Optical Delay Line Linear Stages

MKS/Newport
The DL Series is an affordable linear motor driven stage designed for delay lines. These stages are optimized for ultrafast spectroscopy applications that require repeatable and precise delays, such as pump-probe, interferometry and 2DIR. With travels of 125, 225 and 325 mm, DL Series stages cover almost all possible delays from femtosecond to nanosecond. The integrated motion controller and graphical user interface (GUI) make setup and operation easy.

Principles and Applications of Light and Color Measurement Principles and Applications of Light and Color Measurement
Wed, Aug 19, 2020 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
The properties of light that stimulate the eye and build our visual perception also guide the design of illuminated devices. In this webinar, the presenters will explain how manufacturers use photometric technology to best assess the visual quality of displays, backlit components, and light sources — as they are actually seen and experienced by users. Presented by Radiant Vision Systems.
