The BullsEye fire extinguisher training system uses laser technology to simulate the discharge of a dry chemical extinguisher for use in OSHA-mandated training.
Senators are planning to cut budgets for the space interceptor portion of the controversial US missile defence programme, according to reports. However, it appears that a complementary scheme to blast enemy ICBMs shortly after takeoff using a giant laser cannon mounted in a jumbo jet will be fully funded.
Visible and ultraviolet laser light has been used for years to cool trapped atoms--and more recently larger objects--by reducing the extent of their thermal motion.
Experts are testing a new laser eye surgery device that is designed to improve upon the current treatment for glaucoma.
Photoacoustic techniques can supplement conventional imaging techniques in breast cancer diagnostics. From first tests on patients using the ¡¥photoacoustic mammoscope¡¦ developed by the University of Twente, researcher Dr. Srirang Manohar concludes that the images obtained add valuable information about the vascularisation of a tumor. The research has been done in cooperation with the Medisch Spectrum Twente hospital in Enschede, and the results are published in the online journal Optics Express.
Raytheon Co.'s operations in Marlborough has won a contract modification for $15.9 million from the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory to build an array of individual laser 'sub-apertures' that could act as either transmitters or receivers of laser energy, according to the U.S. Department of Defense.
Eblana Photonics Ltd. shipped the first batch of its single-wavelength laser diodes for analog and other ultra-narrow linewidth and low phase noise applications. The product series exhibits RIN down to -160 dB/Hz and emission linewidths below 100 kHz at emitted powers as low as 500 £gW.
Since Einstein, scientists have dreamed of Laser light powered rockets streaking through space at speeds approaching the speed of light. This vision came a step closer to reality on December 21, 2006, when Dr. Young Bae of the Bae Institute successfully demonstrated the world’s first Photonic Laser Thruster (PLT). Repeated experiments since then have reconfirmed results.
Prof. Ehud Assia and Dr. Ami Eyel of IOPtima are testing a new laser surgery device specifically designed to make glaucoma procedures safer, simpler and faster.
Oncore Power Systems, of Newport Beach, CA, began producing a line of fiber-optic network cables and cable assemblies. The assemblies can be purchased in 10-Gbit laser-optimized or standard 50-µm multi-mode, 62.5/125 multi-mode, single-mode, and mode-conditioning cables.
