Improvements in LiDAR technology will help NASA scientists and explorers perform remote sensing and measurement functions

Researchers at the University of Bristol have made significant breakthroughs in expanding quantum technology by integrating the world's smallest quantum photodetector onto silicon chips. The paper "A Bi CMOS Electron Photon Integrated Circuit Quantum Photodetector" was published in Science Advances.In the 1960s, scientists and engineers were able to miniaturize transistors onto inexpensive microch...

Credo Technology Group Holding Ltd announced today the launch of the industry's first Dove 800 850G digital signal processor IC, which has been optimized for linear receiving optical devices and is also known as semi retiming linear optical devices in the industry. In LRO transceivers or active optical cables, only the transmission path from the electrical input to the output of the optical path i...

TDK Corporation (TSE: 6762) announced the introduction of the new NTCWS series of NTC thermistors with gold wire bonding. These bonding NTC thermistors can be installed in packages via gold wire bonding to enable high precision temperature detection of laser diodes (LD) for optical communication. The series will begin mass production in September 2023.The use of LD devices in optical communication...

Streamlight, a leading supplier of high-performance lighting and weapon lights/laser aiming equipment, has launched upgraded models of its TLR RM 1 and TLR RM 2 series of lights, each now equipped with an HPL face cap, providing ultra bright beams of up to 1000 lumens and an extended range of up to 22000 candela.The popular TLR RM 1 and TLR RM 2 models are equipped with red or green lasers, both o...

Optical metamaterials are an effective way to utilize their superior photon capture capabilities. Therefore, perfect absorbers can be achieved through nanoscale resonant plasmas and metamaterial structures.Metamaterial perfect absorbers (MPAs) are typically composed of periodic subwavelength metals (such as plasma superabsorbers) or dielectric resonance units. Compared with static passive physical...
