Aspheric Lenses:
Jan 1, 1998 — In the past, high precision aspheric optics have been produced on a "one-off" basis using highly skilled and labor intensive processes. Today, manufacturers of advanced semiconductor processing equipment are looking to incorporate aspheric surfaces in these systems to replace one or more projection optic components, resulting in a smaller, more compact optical systems. In addition, incorporating aspheres permits better optical correction for the higher numerical aperture that make smaller,...
High-speed imagers come to the desktop
Jan 1, 1998 — HHigh-speed video for motion analysis has gained wide acceptance over the past 15 years. The technolgy grew despite slow and arduous processes on computers built for other purposes. High-speed cameras that plug in directly to a PC could alleviate...
Laser Diodes:
Jan 1, 1998 — The small size, high reliability, excellent beam quality, low price and negligible operating costs of diode lasers have made them today's most popular laser. High power devices promise to replace many other laser types, while enabling more...
Diode Lasers:
Jan 1, 1998 — For years, scientists have searched for the secret to cheap, compact blue lasers for high-density optical storage. Blue diode lasers' short wavelength offers a small focused spot size, which would maximize the density and transfer rate of stored...
Optical Waveguides:
Jan 1, 1998 — Integrated optic modulators provide chirp-free modulation with on-off ratios that meet the requirements of WDM systems. The marketplace is demanding higher levels of integration in the modulator to simplify the overall system and increase the...
Machine Vision:
Jan 1, 1998 — Improvements processors, software and cameras will lead to machine vision systems that are easier and cheaper to employ. The net result should be continued market growth, and that bodes well for the machine vision industry.
Fiber Gratings:
Jan 1, 1998 — An exciting recent development in fiber-optic technology is the ability to holographically imprint diffraction gratings into the core of an optical fiber using intense UV light. Today the most important communications application for fiber gratings...
High Harmonics Could Revolutionize Optical Science
Jan 1, 1998 — The generation of very-short coherent x-ray pulses can be achieved using high-field effects, where a super-intense, ultrashort optical pulse nonlinearly interacts with a medium. This scheme is referred to as high-harmonic generation, and has...
High Power Laser Optics:
Jan 1, 1998 — As power levels rise above 5 kW, optics become critical to the performance and reliability of laser systems. These applications demand consistent laser-quality ZnSe that is defect free and has bulk absorption at or near theoretical values. Other...
Imaging Boards:
Jan 1, 1998 — To say that the world of imaging is evolving is an understatement in the least. Manufacturers will continue to migrate away from dedicated systems for high-end applications. This movement is only possible because high-performance processing is...
IR diode lasers boost telecom, material industries
Jan 1, 1998 — Improvements to single- and multimode diode lasers have produced devices that are well suited for a diverse set of applications. During the past several years, diode lasers have achieved higher powers and higher reliabilities over an increasingly...
Lens Design:
Jan 1, 1998 — So there you are: Your company is developing a product that will incorporate an optical system which must be a custom design. And you are responsible for the optics. Assuming that you have a reasonable knowledge of geometrical optics and access to...
Nonlinear optics:
Jan 1, 1998 — Until the late 1980s, multiphoton processes in organic and polymeric materials were only of academic interest due to their relatively low-multiphoton-absorption cross sections. However, a new generation of highly efficient organic materials with...
Optical Design:
Jan 1, 1998 — Optical Design software encompasses a large variety of applications, spanning lens design and illumination optics, laser cavity design, integrated optics design, physical image modeling, and polarization and scattering analysis. The demands of the...
Passive alignment:
Jan 1, 1998 — The cost issues of conventional optical module technologies arise from the long assembly time, the large number of components, and the need for costly hermetically-sealed packages. To overcome the above shortcomings, the industry needs innovative...
All Solid-State Lasers:
Jan 1, 1998 — All-solid-state sources are comparable to high-power diode lasers with a few notable exceptions: they provide improved mode quality, energy storage for Q-switched applications, mode-locking for ultrashort pulses and alternative wavelengths. Going...
Optical Coherence Tomography:
Jan 1, 1998 — OCT is a promising and powerful medical imaging technique because it can permit the real-time, in-situ visualization of microstructures in tissue without the need for specimen excisions. The challenge of the future will be the vertical integration...
Vision Software:
Jan 1, 1998 — Driven by converging technologies, today's PC-based vision software for industrial and laboratory applications is a cost-effective, general-purpose tool for scientists and engineers. However, with technological advancements such as Intel's Pentium...
X-ray Detectors:
Jan 1, 1998 — Amorphous Silicon x-ray detectors are on the verge of revolutionizing medical imaging technology. Although laboratory prototypes have been available for a few years, the technology has matured to the point of mass production. Within the next year,...
Clues About Atmospheric Sprites Unfold
Jan 1, 1998 — Scientists have long thought that red sprites, very intense and brief forms of lightning that occur high in the atmosphere, lack definite form. At 30 to 50 miles above the storm, the researchers said, spark channels form, which give off a blue glow...
Coherent Enters Telecom Market
Jan 1, 1998 — Coherent Inc. of Santa Clara, Calif., has formed a joint venture with Fiber Optics Network Solutions Corp. of Northboro, Mass., to develop a high-power broadband transmission product line for cost-effective cable TV and high-speed Internet access....
Laser Expert Collared in Espionage Case
Jan 1, 1998 — A US physicist who formerly worked for Los Alamos National Laboratory (website) in New Mexico has admitted under a plea bargain agreement to giving defense information that he knew was classified to the Chinese government, officials at the US...
Industrial Laser Shipments Escalate
Jan 1, 1998 — Third-quarter 1997 shipments of industrial laser equipment and systems within North America, including exports from the US, rose 16.4 percent from the third quarter of 1996, according to a recently published report by the Laser Systems Product Group...
Robotic Camera Keeps Eye on Shuttle
Jan 1, 1998 — An astronaut conducted the first tests of NASA's Aercam Sprint, a robotic camera about the size of a beach ball. NASA's Aercam Sprint, a robotic camera about the size of a beach ball. In December, astronaut Winston Scott tossed the camera outside...
Molecular 'Antenna' Captures Light
Jan 1, 1998 — Researchers from the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed a class of dendrimer molecules that "harvest" light. The molecules have a unique, treelike structure that enables them to...
