Chip-Based 3D Printer for Prototyping on the Go
Chip-Based 3D Printer for Prototyping on the Go

Teams at MIT and the University of Texas at Austin have fabricated a proof-of-concept chip-based 3D printer. The device, which is small enough to fit on a U.S. quarter, consists of a single millimeter-scale photonic chip that emits reconfigurable beams of light into a well of resin that cures into a solid shape when light strikes it.  Read Article 
Erbium Laser Miniaturized to Chip-Scale
Erbium Laser Miniaturized to Chip-Scale

At the crossroads of growing demand for fiber lasers and chip-scale lasers, researchers at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne have developed a chip-integrated erbium-doped waveguide laser that approaches the performance of fiber-based lasers. It combines wide wavelength tunability with the practicality of chip-scale photonic integration.  Read Article

High-Performance PDH Locking with Reconfigurable Instrumentation
High-Performance PDH Locking with Reconfigurable Instrumentation

Tue, Jun 18, 2024 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDT
The Pound-Drever-Hall (PDH) method is ubiquitous in fields requiring laser frequency stabilization, including atomic physics, spectroscopy, and precision measurement. However, since PDH systems are traditionally assembled manually from various components, they often present challenges for researchers due to time constraints and adaptability issues, leading to maintenance difficulties and signal distortion. In this presentation, Liquid Instruments provides a pedagogical introduction to the PDH technique and creates a system using reconfigurable, FPGA-based instrumentation. They combine multiple instruments, including the Moku Laser Lock Box, into a bespoke environment that emulates a real optical system. Presented by Liquid Instruments.

Accelerating Time-to-Market with Semrock Optical Filters
Accelerating Time-to-Market with Semrock Optical Filters

Thu, Jun 20, 2024 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
In this webinar, Elizabeth Bernhardt from IDEX Health & Science illustrates how the Semrock suite of tools accelerates prototyping timelines. First, she demonstrates the free SearchLight spectral modeling analysis tool, which saves prototyping hours and quickly calculates different filter options. After spectral modeling, she shows how to move straight to the lab using the ready-to-ship Semrock optical filter catalog. With more than 850 optical filters, testing and optimizing optical filters has never been easier. Finally, she presents why engaging with IDEX Health & Science’s team of filter experts sets instruments apart. Leveraging extensive industry experience and granting access to thousands of coating recipes, IDEX Health & Science provides key assistance in optimizing filter selection, including advising on custom coating run considerations and cost optimization. With their commitment to shorter lead times and a dedicated team, they customize optical filters suited to specific applications. Attendees are empowered to use Semrock tools and optical filters to accelerate time-to-market. Presented by IDEX Health & Science.
