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 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 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.

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

Increased power is necessary to increase the throughput of many industrial laser material processing applications. To meet these emerging needs of its industrial customers, Photonics Industries International has extended its Nd:YVO4 based DSH Series laser offering to include 50W of green and 30W of UV average power in a commercially available diode pumped solid state laser.

NEC Corporation (NEC) has announced the successful experimental demonstration of 1.15-Tb/s ultra-long haul optical transmission over 10,000 kilometers using optical superchannel technology. This is the first instance that a terabit/s channel generated from a single laser source has been transmitted over such a distance. Four superchannels were transmitted together by wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) to achieve a total capacity of 4 Tb/s and...

Hamamatsu Photonics has introduced its high speed G10768-1024D InGaAs linear image sensors to meet increasing industrial requirements to measure foreign bodies on-line in the near infrared range (in the wavelength range from 800 nm to 1700 nm).

Hamamatsu Photonics introduce a new Photo IC, the S11049-02SB. This is a high performance sensor mounted into a compact single in-line package (SIP).

Hamamatsu Photonics introduced a back illuminated 16 channel photodiode array (PDA), designed for use in X-ray non-destructive testing applications. The S11212 uses flip-chip technology that allows the PDA to receive scintillation light from the back side of the array. This flip-chip approach reduces the need for gold bond wires and junction layers on the light input side, vastly reducing the risk of wire bond damage during scintillator mounting....

Hamamatsu Photonics introduced the new C11208 MPPC module which integrates the S11028 series MPPC, a pixelated silicon avalanche photodiode operated in Geiger-mode, with the addition of a high performance thermoelectric cooler. Along with the TE cooled MPPC, the module houses a current-to-voltage converter, high speed comparator, high voltage power supply circuit, temperature control and counting circuits as well as a micro controller.
