The IEEE Standards Association announced today the approval of a new Working Group with the task of developing a new communications standard, IEEE P1904.1™, "Standard for Service Interoperability in Ethernet Passive Optical Networks (SIEPON)."
Vistec Electron Beam GmbH is pleased to announce that it has stepped into a joined electron-beam lithography project with the renowned Moscow Institute of Electronic Technology (MIET). MIET, one of the most advanced Universities and research institutions in Russia and Vistec Electron Beam, a leading German supplier of electron-beam lithography systems will collaborate within a dedicated photomask manufacturing project recently kicked-off in Russia.
Agilent Technologies, Inc. today introduced the 7000B Triple Quadrupole Gas Chromatograph/Mass Spectrometer (GC/MS/MS)
University of Toronto quantum optics researchers Sajeev John and Xun Ma have discovered new behaviours of light within photonic crystals that could lead to faster optical information processing and compact computers that don't overheat.
Sword Diagnostics, Inc. is pleased to announce that the United States Patent Office (USPTO) has issued patent number 7,599,057 titled "Method and Apparatus for Detection of Biological Organisms using Raman Scattering" to the company. The patent covers the core technology which focuses on improved sensitivity.
On Monday (Dec. 14) Verizon became the first telecommunications carrier to successfully deploy a commercial 100G (gigabits per second) ultra-long-haul optical system for live traffic. This system was deployed on the company's European optical core network between Paris and Frankfurt. The accomplishment marks the first time for deployment of ultra-long-haul 100G using a single channel on a production network.
A spectroscope with unrivalled performance, able to identify tiny amounts of trace gases in real time, has been developed by researchers from CNRS's Molecular Photophysics Institute (Laboratoire de Photophysique moléculaire, LPPM) and the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics (Germany), within the framework of the European Laboratory for Frequency Comb Spectroscopy. Led by Theodor W. Hänsch, Nobel Laureate in Physics (2005) and Nathalie Picqué of LPPM, the international team has designed an instrument based on two femtosecond laser frequency combs. Thanks to the breakthrough in performance it has achieved, this spectrometer could become the new reference in ultrasensitive spectroscopy. This is a major step forward both for fundamental research and for many applied fields, and is explained in detail in the advance online edition of the journal Nature Photonics.
Additional important milestones have been reached on the road to success, and the pace continues to be fast. By setting up a sales branch office in France, Optics Balzers as a provider of innovative optical thin-film components and assemblies continues to forge ahead with expanding its presence in Europe. Moreover, Christoph Zellweger has joined the product management team at headquarters to contribute to the effort. Recertification of the ISO 9001:2008 quality management system has also been successfully completed.
