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...

Recently, Jenoptik, a German company, released its preliminary performance for 2024, delivering a record high in both revenue and profit, but also revealing hidden concerns amidst industry cyclical fluctuations. Against the backdrop of weak demand in the semiconductor equipment market and increasing global economic uncertainty, this company with laser and optical technology as its core is attempti...

High intensity and high repetition lasers rapidly and continuously emit powerful bursts of light, capable of emitting multiple times per second. Commercial fusion energy factories and advanced compact radiation sources are common examples of systems that rely on such laser systems. However, humans are a major limiting factor as their response time is insufficient to manage such rapid shooting syst...
