Data Hacks Demonstrate Networks’ Need for Optical Protections
Information technology computer scientists at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) have demonstrated how data can be transmitted to LEDs — contained in regular office devices such as a printer — using a directed laser. The demonstration shows the ability for data hackers to secretly communicate with “air-gapped” computer systems over distances of several meters.

Protocol Aims to Standardize Raman Spectral Analysis
To maximize the value of AI analysis for spectral data, a research team in Germany has developed a guide for Raman spectral analysis. The guide covers each step in the analytical process, from experimental design to statistical analysis. The standards will make it easier for scientists to use Raman spectroscopy for real-world applications in biology, diagnostics, food safety, pharmaceuticals, and other fields.

Next-Generation Optics Software: Trends in Technology
Tue, Jan 18, 2022 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EST
Frank Wyrowski of LightTrans International introduces an alternative approach to optical systems modeling in this webinar: identifying and applying the generalization of ray optics inside the framework of physical optics software. He presents modeling software that results from answering this question, showcasing how physical optics modeling can be made more practical and useful for advancing technologies such as AR/MR devices. Sponsored by LightTrans International GmbH.

Si/SiN-Integrated Photonics for Lidar, Quantum, and Sensing
Wed, Jan 19, 2022 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EST
In this webinar, Amin Abbasi, business development manager at imec, presents imec's recent collaborative progress on using integrated photonics for emerging applications such as on-chip lidar, quantum computing, and sensing. The added value of using integrated photonics-based solutions is a higher level of integration capacity, compactness, and scalability. Presented by imec.

.: All Things Photonics

Jerome Faist, co-inventor of the quantum cascade laser (QCL), reflects on nearly 30 years’ worth of innovations in semiconductor lasing and the history of the QCL in this week's episode. Faist discusses applications in the terahertz and mid-infrared bands, frequency comb spectroscopy, and ultrashort-pulse lasing. Plus, how did the QCL get its name?
