European photonics industry growing at more than double global GDP rate
New research recently published shows European photonics is growing at more than double the rate of global GDP - outperforming EU GDP and EU industrial production by three and five times, respectively. Present in many high-end, next-generation products, photonics technologies have proved to be long-term drivers of growth through their indispensable role in future markets.
Digital anatomy 3D printer at photonics centre
Laser Lines has installed theStratasys J750 Digital Anatomy 3D Printerin CPI’s National Healthcare Photonics Centre. The Centre is a combination of bio-labs and instrument development facilities where companies can work alongsideCPIstaff in facilities for the development of medical technology using photonics.
Brain damage in babies spotted early with new photonics scanner
An estimated 500,000 babies born around the world each year develop unnecessary brain damage that could be treated if caught in time - but monitoring these infants' delicate brains is extremely difficult. However, spotting these underlying causes at a critical, early stage, a new photonics device currently in development aims to reduce unnecessary disabilities by improving the instant, real time monitoring of newborn babies with harmless light pa...
Odin chip reduces power for data centre operations
At OFC 2021, the leading optical networking event in North America, Ranovus announced the next step in reducing power consumption and overall costs for hyperscale data centre operations with the introduction of the Odin Analog-Drive CPO 2.0 architecture.

Wyant College of Optical Sciences.Shankar Baliga, Senior Product Manager, will serve as the coordinator and contact person for the Detector Group.
TREND Networks acquires Terahertz Technologies
TREND Networks has announced the acquisition of US-based fibre optic and photonics test equipment company Terahertz Technologies (TTI).
SpaceABLE optical modules for ARTES Scylight program
Reflex Photonics, a Smiths Interconnect company, was recently awarded a multimillion-dollar contract to deliver thousands of SpaceABLE 28 optical module devices to be used in high-throughput communication satellites (HTCS) that will be deployed in geostationary orbit.
Photonic doppler velocimetry in versatile form factor
LASER COMPONENTS has introduced its Photonics Doppler Velocimetry (PDV) instrument in a compact and versatile benchtop form factor. Velocity measurement of fast-moving materials is essential to a growing number of scientific and technical fields including shock physics, the study of material properties, hypervelocity impact testing, detonics and shock wave experiments.
Beamsplitter for wavelengths with different polarisations
LASER COMPONENTS has developed a beamsplitter in which the combined beam of a frequency-doubled laser is split in such a way that 50% of each of the two wavelengths is split off, independent of their polarisations. The polarisation of the split beams remains unchanged.
Layered materials grant sight to electronic chips
Researchers atGraphene Flagshippartner, the Vienna University of Technology in Austria, has reported an image sensor with an integrated Artificial Neural Network (ANN) capable of learning and classifying images within nanoseconds. The chip is a thousand times faster and uses much less power than conventional vision technologies.
