Researchers at the University of Illinois have discovered a way to generate light and reduce damage in a leading candidate for next-generation microelectronics lithography. The technique could help pack more power into smaller computer chips.
Dr. John Bergeron of the Skin & Vein Laser Center is proud to be one of the first doctors in the country trained and certified in the "Smartlipo?quot; procedure and also one of the first to bring the innovative treatment hailed the "lunch hour lipo" in the cosmetic industry to the Houston area.
New evidence from the University of Southern California suggests that there may be dedicated cells in the retina that help compile small bits of information in order to recognize objects.
International research co-led by professor Alejandro Maiche, of the Department of Basic, Evolutionary and Educational Psychology at the UAB, has put forward the hypothesis that the brain responds to the possibility that two objects might collide, in a different way to how it would react to two objects in movement with divergent trajectories.
Cassini scientists are poring through hundreds of images returned from the 10 September fly-by of Saturn's two-toned moon Iapetus.
The conventional model for galaxy evolution predicts that small galaxies in the early Universe evolved into the massive galaxies of today by coalescing. Nine Lego-like “building block” galaxies initially dete...
Recent research shows that humans are surprisingly poor at matching a face in a photograph to that seen in real life. The situation is the same with automatic face recognition systems. In today’s surveillance society, correct photo identification is of the utmost importance and with the government’s proposed identity card scheme expected to begin in 200, the ID issue is highly controversial.
"Optics + Photonics is proceeding on the right track with its emphasis on nano and solar technologies, which are immensely important to our future," said Akhlesh Lakhtakia, Charles Godfrey Binder professor of engineering science and mechanics at Pennsylvania State University and editor-in-chief of SPIE's Journal of Nanophotonics. Lakhtakia continued, "But this emphasis on the nano and solar future has its feet firmly planted in the past glories and ongoing research in optics and photonics, a foundation from which all future technologies emerge."
Harris Corporation, an international communications and information technology company, is showcasing a comprehensive offering of broadcast fiber optic products that enable customers to choose a fiber solution tailored to their specific application requirements. The company is displaying its OPTO+™ line, which offers innovative, cost-effective, highly reliable fiber optic solutions in a minimal amount of space — for any broadband signal transport application.
The Convir FL series of fibre-optic infrared temperature sensors has now grown with the addition of three new models. These new sensors extend the temperature range of the FL series enabling them to measure from 300 to 2500ºC, as well as improving their performance at short-wavelengths.
Cree, Inc., a leader in LED lighting components, today announced it has achieved R&D results of 129 lumens per watt for a cool-white LED and 99 lumens per watt for a warm-white LED. These are the best results reported for packaged, high-power LEDs, and they clearly indicate that Cree is extending its lead in solid-state lighting through its continued investments in LED technology.
Firstsight Vision is delighted to have signed an exclusive distribution agreement for the UK with Opgal Optronic Industries Ltd for sales into the Industrial, Security and Defence Markets, This is part of a wider European agreement with the STEMMER Imaging Group.
Wave7 Optics, a leading supplier of fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) equipment for residential and business services, and SPIE Communications, a leading company delivering telecom and IT solutions and services, today announced that the Trident7™ Optical Access Platform has been selected for a new municipal network called SEQUANTIC, which is slated to begin service in October 2007.
Research by the Advanced Institute of Technology Photonics group scientists on new approaches to displays and lighting technology were recently awarded the best poster prizes at the European Materials Research Society (EMRS), Strasbourg and the International Conference on Optical, Optoelectronic and Photonic Materials and Applications (ICOOPMA), London.
Advanced Medical Optics, Inc., a global leader in ophthalmic surgical devices and eye care products, today announced the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the Advanced CustomVue(TM) Monovision procedure, the first wavefront-guided laser vision correction procedure for the visual correction of myopic (nearsighted) presbyopic patients, with and without astigmatism.
