Magneto-Optical Trap (MOT)- Create your own laser cooled atomic cloud
OPTICA Photonics AG offers now in cooperation with ColdQuanta Inc. the first commercial MOT kit. A magneto-optical trap (MOT) – the most popular laser cooling and trapping setup – requires a vacuum system with optical access that contains the atomic species to be trapped and a magnetic quadrupole field.
Hamamatsu Photonics Back-thinned CCD with Electronic Shutter Function
Hamamatsu Photonics introduce a new design of back-thinned linear CCD image sensor. The S11155-2048 and S11156-2048 utilise a resistive gate structure, with “on chip” electronic shutter function, offering high speed readout with low image lag. With their back-thinned structure these CCDs offer a high sensitivity (> 80 % quantum efficiency) from the UV to the NIR region of the spectrum.
Koheras BoostiK - High Power, Ultra Low Noise Single Frequency Fiber Laser
The BoostiK systems are narrow linewidth fiber laser turn-key benchtop systems based on a truly single mode, single frequency DFB (Distributed-Feedback) Fiber Laser with extremely high frequency stability and low phase and intensity noise.
New Avago Technologies Optical Modules Bridge Compatibility Gap in Data Centers to Increase Bandwidth
Avago Technologies today announced fiber optic module solutions that enable more efficient switching and greater bandwidth in data centers. The new pluggable, parallel optical QSFP+ eSR4 transceiver is the first module that can address both 40 Gigabit (40G) and 10 Gigabit (10G) Ethernet applications with a verified link distance of 400 meters. This gives data center operators the flexibility to reuse the current 10G wired infrastructure when upgr...
MOST(R) Forum 2012 Will Mark MOST150 Kickoff
The fourth MOST Forum on March 20, 2012 in Stuttgart/Esslingen will celebrate a significant milestone of MOST Technology: with MOST150, the third MOST generation will go into series in 2012. Thus, for the first time, the MOST Ethernet channel will be used in practice to transmit IP data within the vehicle. MOST150 provides an automotive-ready physical layer for Ethernet protocols in addition to transporting high Quality of Service (QoS) audio and...
Ophir Photonics Introduces New PF Laser Sensors, Volume Absorbers with 20X the Power Handling Capacity
Ophir Photonics Group, the global leader in precision laser measurement, today announced a new line of high damage threshold power volume absorbers for short pulsed lasers (
Second MOST Forum Focused on Consumer Device Connectivity to MOST
The second MOST Forum took place on March 23rd, 2010, in Frankfurt, Germany. 150 professionals from the automotive electronics industry and academia participated in the very informative conference and visited the accompanying exhibition. The broad international audience was composed of attendees from Europe as well as India, Japan, South Korea, and the United States.
Spiricon Introduces BeamMic, Entry-Level Laser Beam Analysis System Integrates Camera, 2D and 3D Beam Profiles, ISO Measurements, Pass/Fail Testing
Spiricon today announced BeamMic, a new laser beam analyzer that combines the essentials for beam Analysis in a low-cost, entry-level system. BeamMic includes easy-to-use software that measures a beam’s size, shape, uniformity, and mode content.
Ophir Photonics Group Introduces Perpetual Lifetime Warranty on Laser Power Meters & Sensors
Ophir Photonics Group has announced a Perpetual Lifetime Warranty covering the company's laser measurement sensors and power/energy meters. The new program, available for North and South America, extends the standard one-year manufacturer's warranty an additional year if the product's calibration is kept current.
Photonics Industries announces high intensity sub ns SN Series laser for industrial micro machining applications
There is a desire to use shorter (i.e., sub ns) pulse width lasers to enable a more precise ablative based material processing. If the pulse width is too long >10 ns the processing is fast, but crude. If the pulse width is too short
