Photonics Bestsellers That Never Were
Aug 1, 2012 — As we in the industry know, optics and photonics are vital to modern life. But the reality is that many people are unaware of this fact. So, to celebrate our second annual “list” issue, I wondered what a bestsellers list might look like if photonics and pop culture collided. The Girl with the Argon Tattoo The Girl Who Played with Fiber The Girl Who Kicked the Honeycomb Table The Fellowship of the Ring Laser The Hubble Games Charlie and the Optics Factory The Da Vinci...
Are you positioned for success?
Aug 1, 2012 — The one thing that is never far from our thoughts these days is the economy and, closer to home for many of us, the state of the jobs market. The latest US jobs report told the grim story of only 80,000 jobs added in June, far below the number...
Fiber Demand Delivers Record Revenue to IPG in Q2
OXFORD, Mass., Aug. 1, 2012 — Strong sales of fiber lasers for materials processing applications were the driving factor behind IPG Photonics Corp.’s $37.7 million profit for the second quarter, a 23 percent increase over the same quarter last year, the company reported...
The Ongoing Struggle Over Translational Research
Aug 1, 2012 — If the National Center for Advancing Translational Science were a person with feelings and a fragile sense of self-worth, it might be feeling snubbed and even a bit wounded these days. Sure, the Obama administration’s budget proposal released...
RIT, Raytheon to Develop Advanced IR Detectors

Petawatt Laser Achieves Record Power
BERKELEY, Calif., Aug. 1, 2012 — The Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator (BELLA) laser system has generated a record petawatt of power in a pulse just 40 fs long at a pulse rate of 1 Hz — one pulse every second.
Controlled Beam of Single Photons Produced
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Aug. 1, 2012 — Quantum computing is expected to surpass conventional computing in terms of speed and performance of complex computations. However, the development of quantum devices for real-world applications has been met with major challenges.
Amid Lawsuit, Deep Photonics Files for Bankruptcy
CORVALLIS, Ore., July 31, 2012 — Ultrafast fiber laser maker Deep Photonics Corp. has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The company currently is suing its former CEO and others for allegedly transferring company secrets and key employees to a competitor and is seeking $75...
Avoiding Traps in Plastic Electronics
ATLANTA, July 31, 2012 — A theoretical framework that addresses the significant “charge trap” defect of plastic semiconductors has yielded trap-free plastic electronics with the potential for more efficient plastic LEDs and solar cells.
Measurement Advance Could Speed Solar Innovation
GAITHERSBURG, Md., July 31, 2012 — A new automated measurement system that accurately and quickly measures the electric power output of solar energy devices could soon help researchers and manufacturers to develop next-generation solar energy cells.
Flat Panel Market Buoys Coherent
SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 31, 2012 — Strong sales in the microelectronics market, particularly those of excimer laser annealing systems for flat panel displays, contributed almost half of Coherent’s third-quarter revenue of $196.4 million, the laser maker reported last week....
PVs Enabled from Any Semiconductor
BERKELEY, Calif., July 31, 2012 — A technology that improves the photovoltaic qualities of virtually any semiconductor could lead to the use of plentiful, relatively inexpensive materials that once were considered unsuitable for solar cells because their properties were so difficult...
