Metal-Wire Waveguides Deliver Unparalleled THz Network Efficiency
Metal-Wire Waveguides Deliver Unparalleled THz Network Efficiency
A research group at Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) in Quebec has achieved broadband terahertz (THz) signal processing by directly engineering the wire surfaces of metal-wire waveguides. The approach allowed multiscale-structured Bragg gratings to be directly etched on metal wires without the need to introduce additional materials.

OCT Expands Wire-Based Laser Material Deposition’s Range of Uses
OCT Expands Wire-Based Laser Material Deposition’s Range of Uses
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Production Technology IPT, in collaboration with five industry partners, have equipped a laser metal deposition (LMD) system with an OCT system. The combination mechanism enabled the scientists to successfully record the welding process in progress, and made it possible to control the quality and process during use, which reduces scrap.

LightMachinery Inc. - HyperFine Brillouin Spectrometer HyperFine Brillouin Spectrometer

LightMachinery Inc.
The great challenge with Brillouin spectroscopy is that the scattered signal from the un-shifted wavelength of the laser can overwhelm the small Brillouin shifted return signal. LightMachinery has combined its leading-edge HyperFine spectrometer with a very narrow band tunable filter to suppress the bright un-shifted laser frequency.

Emerging Technologies Changing Ophthalmology Access and Point of Care Emerging Technologies Changing Ophthalmology Access and Point of Care
Thu, Mar 17, 2022 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM EDT
This webinar — for those interested in visual optics, ophthalmology, and biomedical devices — introduces five technologies that are using optics, photonics, or imaging to redefine how patients are served along the point-of-care continuum, from diagnosis and treatment to surgical selection and correction. It also showcases how technologies are being applied to make tools more mobile and accessible, minimize workflows, and reduce the risks associated with COVID-19 to significantly improve both the patients’ and the practitioners’ experience. Presented by Luminate.

All Things Photonics
Building on the first episode of the season, University of California, Santa Barbara scientists Philip Lubin and Joel Rothman discuss Project Starlight, a NASA project that intends to send microscopic worms — among other creatures — into space. Lubin, the brainpower behind the directed energy facet of the project, identifies the considerable photonic advances that must be made before achieving atmospheric flight.
