Research on LiDAR at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, published in Nature

Japanese and Swiss scientists have collaborated to develop glass that can generate electricity under light, which may pave the way for sustainable energy production. Researchers from Tokyo Institute of Technology and the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne used femtosecond lasers to etch circuits on glass surfaces, resulting in the unexpected generation of semiconductor crystals.The ...

A group of network, semiconductor, and optical companies formed the LPO MSA to develop the network equipment and optical module specifications required to implement a wide ecosystem of interoperable LPO solutions.These specifications address the industry challenges of reducing power consumption, cost, and latency while improving the reliability of high-speed optical interconnections.Accelink, AMD...

Recently, the Xi'an Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has made significant progress in attosecond imaging research, achieving high-resolution imaging of ultra wide spectrum light sources. The related results were published in the journal Photonics Research under the title "Snapshot coherent diffraction imaging across ultra wideband spectra".Figure 1. Demonst...

Neptunium is the main radioactive component of nuclear waste, with a complex atomic structure that can be explored through mass spectrometry. This analysis is crucial for understanding its inherent characteristics and determining the isotopic composition of neptunium waste. Magdalena Kaja and her team from Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz, Germany have developed a novel laser spectroscopy te...

Improvements in LiDAR technology will assist NASA scientists and explorers in remote sensing and measurement, surveying, 3D image scanning, hazard detection and avoidance, and navigation.Like sonar that uses light instead of sound, LiDAR technology is increasingly helping NASA scientists and explorers with remote sensing and measurement, surveying, 3D image scanning, hazard detection and avoidance...
