BOSTON, Feb. 25, 2014 — A new optical approach could help doctors quickly determine a patient’s blood coagulation (clotting) status in near real time.
QD Lasers Grown on Silicon Show Record Performance
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., and BETHLEHEM, Pa., Feb. 25, 2014 — A new study shows that direct growth of III-V lasers on silicon (Si) with quantum dot (QD) active regions is a competitive alternative to wafer bonding lasers grown on native substrates. The 1.3-µm wavelength indium arsenide (InAs) QD lasers...
SPIE Honors Palanker
SANTA CLARA, Calif., Feb. 25, 2014 — Dr. Daniel Palanker is the 2014 recipient of the SPIE Translational Research Award. An associate professor of ophthalmology at Stanford University, Palanker received the award for his study titled “Non-damaging laser therapy of the macula:...
Fast Phase Modulator Is World's Most Compact
KARLSRUHE, Germany, Feb. 24, 2014 — Using electro-optical signals rather than traditional electrical signals could make the exchange of digital information more efficient.
New Approach to Creating Flexible Waveguides
AMES, Iowa, Feb. 24, 2014 — Creating flexible optical waveguides has long been a challenge, as it requires the self-contradicting task of shaping a highly soft material into thin and long structures that are also self-sustaining. A new fabrication technique developed by...
PHOQUS to Focus on Cells and Disease
DUNDEE, Scotland, Feb. 24, 2014 — The European Commission (EU) has awarded nearly €4 million in funding for investigations on the relationships between cellular processes and disease. The EU has awarded the University of Dundee a €3.8 million (about $5.2 million) grant,...
BSI, ICFO Technologies Study Photosynthesis
EAST LANSING, Mich., and BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 21, 2014 — Studying photosynthesis at the single-molecule level could lay the groundwork for better understanding of quantum physics’ role in nature.
