German research institute develops a new nanosecond laser process

When running various artificial intelligence programs such as large language models, although data centers and high-performance computers are not limited by the computing power of their individual nodes, the amount of data transmitted between nodes is currently the root cause of the limitations on the performance and bandwidth transmission of these systems.Because some nodes in the system are more...

Topological laser (TL) is a laser device designed and manufactured using the principles of topological optics, which can produce a robust single-mode laser and is an ideal light source for future new optoelectronic integrated chips. Electrically pumped topology lasers have become a research hotspot due to their small size and ease of integration, but topology lasers based on electrical injection a...

Tongkuai Optoelectronic Devices, a global leader in vertical cavity laser emitters (VCSEL) and laser diodes (PD) solutions based in Germany, and a Spanish expert in high-speed optical network solutions, KDPOF, showcased the first 980 nm multi gigabit interconnect system for automotive systems at last week's ECOC.Both companies are committed to achieving the most advanced optical data communication...

The founder and principal of Puente Solutions Kyle J. Myers has been elected to serve as the 2026 Vice President of SPIE, the international society for optics and photonics. With her election, Myers joins the SPIE presidential chain. She will serve as president-elect in 2027, and as the Society’s president in 2028. Newly-elected: Myers, McNally, Rubinsztein-Dunlop, Wade, Medicus, and ErdmannTh...

When you shoot a laser at a solid-state battery, you find that the particles inside are not thrown into the chaos. This surprised a team of researchers from the United States and the United Kingdom.The team discovered the persistence of memory in ions that help move electricity around solid-state batteries.This discovery has improved the understanding of solid-state batteries, which are candidate...
