New Regulation Hits California Optics Makers
Sep 1, 1997 — DIAMOND BAR, Calif. -- Optics companies in Southern California will have to change dramatically the way they clean their manufacturing systems, according to a regulation recently passed here. In what it calls its biggest step against airborne hydrocarbons in eight years, California's South Coast Air Quality Management District passed a measure that, among other things, will require area optics manufacturers to use water-based cleaning solvents containing fewer than 50 g/l of volatile organic...
New Training Program for Optical Technicians Launched
Sep 1, 1997 — Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California has selected Monroe Community College in Rochester, N.Y., as the first community college to train technicians in optical fabrication. The program, which began this month, will serve as a model for...
Photonics plays a role in all areas of military development: Sensing, Detecting the Enemy: Photonics Expands Strategic Vision
Sep 1, 1997 — The greatest trick in any battle is seeing the enemy before they see you. Unlike radar and other active detection systems, optical detection is mainly a passive detection system, meaning that the act of detection does not emit a tell-tale sign to...
Microspectroscopy:
Sep 1, 1997 — Imagine watching a single chemical bond be created or broken, examining a crystalis molecular arrangement or seeing the molecular distribution of lipids, proteins, and minerals in clogged arteries. Increasingly, this is the kind of work that...
Motion Control:
Sep 1, 1997 — Moving from one place to another, quickly and accurately, is the realm of motion control, and precise movements are key requirements of applications such as optical sectioning, critical dimension metrology, waveguide alignment and nearfield optical...
Military Nets:
Sep 1, 1997 — The old saw, itoo much is never enough,i could be the credo of any soldier going into battle. Information is power. Advanced imaging systems and defense systems can produce information streams in the gigabits per second, pushing the electronic...
Optical Fibers Thrive on Hazardous Duty
Sep 1, 1997 — For 25 years, the optical fiber was little more than a fancy telephone wire, but manufacturing engineers, materials researchers and military scientists around the world are starting to turn up the heat and pressure. In recent months and years,...
Technology Transfers Both Ways
Sep 1, 1997 — In today's military, the fable of the $300 toilet seat has joined the ranks of the left-handed monkey wrench. A new program in the US military should help prevent taxpayers for paying too much for too little, while also boosting commercial...
Weapons of War:
Sep 1, 1997 — Military lasers have become the weapons that existed only in science fiction novels a generation ago. From blowing enemy missiles out of the sky to tracking enemy targets, the sheer numbers of laser weapons has prompted a new way of thinking within...
Accudyne to Develop Laser-Based Glass Separation System
Sep 1, 1997 — The US Display Consortium has awarded a contract to develop a laser-based glass separation system to Accudyne Corp. of Palm Bay, Fla. The new technology is expected to provide improved speed, better accuracy and increased edge strength than current...
Atomic Force Microscope Hindered in Liquid
Sep 1, 1997 — Since its invention, the atomic force microscope has permitted high-resolution imaging at the subnanometer level. Recently, when scientists introduced the microscope to a liquid environment, the resolution improved to the atomic level. Aside from...
Photonics Uncovers Possible Clue to Boy's Killer
Sep 1, 1997 — A 10-week-old fingerprint was 'lifted' with the help of a fluorescent dye and a 5-W diode-pumped laser. Ten-year-old Anthony Martinez was abducted and killed last April, and his nude, bound body dumped in a remote desert site in Berdoo Canyon,...
Clue to Boy's Killer
Sep 1, 1997 — Laser enhances image In the Martinez case, forensic specialists applied super-glue (cyanocrylate) fumes to the print and rinsed the surface with rhodamine, a fluorescent dye. Then they exposed the print to the laser; the light was passed through an...
Ultraviolet Device Captures Images of Aurora Borealis
Sep 1, 1997 — An international probe satellite has sent back images of the aurora borealis captured by a UV imaging device manufactured by Netherlands-based Delft Electronic Products BV. The 20-kg UV imager comprises two cameras, two Earth sensors, a gimbal...
Breakthroughs in True-Color Holography Are Unveiled
Sep 1, 1997 — Lake Forest College in Illinois hosted the Sixth International Symposium of Display Holography, where a mass production method and applications for true full-color holograms were introduced. Using a photopolymer developed by DuPont Corp. and tested...
Japanese Ministry Backs Plan to Commercialize Indoor LED Lighting Systems
Sep 1, 1997 — The Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry in Tokyo is earmarking ¥5 billion for the development of an indoor lighting system that uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs). As part of the effort, the ministry is creating a research team...
Slumping Profits Force Toshiba to Start Layoffs
Sep 1, 1997 — Toshiba America Electronic Components Inc. in Irvine, Calif., has reduced its work force in the wake of changing market conditions. The company laid off 50 employees nationwide. Toshiba made the layoffs in accordance with projected near-term...
SPIE Annual Meeting Draws Largest Attendance Ever
