QPC Lasers, Inc., a world leader in the design and manufacture of high brightness, high power semiconductor lasers for the consumer, industrial, defense, and medical markets, announced today that it has received $1.3 million in new orders for BrightLase® UltraTM Lasers for use in medical applications.
Plans in the 1990s to bring ultra-high speed telecom lines into every home foundered because the optical fibre infrastructure was just too expensive. But a new European project using plastic fibre and off-the-shelf components could make optical networking so cheap and simple that anyone could install it.
Cynosure, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of a broad array of light-based aesthetic treatment systems, and its largest shareholder, El.En. S.p.A., today filed a patent infringement lawsuit against CoolTouch Inc. in U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts.
Gooch & Housego PLC today announced the launch of a new company that brings together five leading players in the photonics industry under the Gooch & Housego brand name.

Scientists have used magnetic fields and tiny iron-bearing particles to drive healthy cells to targeted sites in blood vessels. The research, done in animals, may lead to a new method of delivering
cells and genes to repair injured or diseased organs in people.
Researchers at the University of Illinois are the first to achieve optical waveguiding of near-infrared light through features embedded in self-assembled, three-dimensional photonic crystals. Applications for the optically active crystals include low-loss waveguides, low-threshold lasers and on-chip optical circuitry.
Converting between electronic and optical signals is one of the main costs in high-speed data networks and telecommunications applications, even more so when looking at future applications.
