Marilli won the "2024 CES Innovation Award": Laser and optical taillights produce 1mm of light

The Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) market embodies the technology of remote sensing, surveying, and the use of laser pulses to measure distance and generate detailed three-dimensional models of objects, terrain, and environment.The LiDAR system emits a laser beam and measures the time required for the light to return to the surface, creating accurate and high-resolution digital representation...

Ultra short pulse lasers, such as femtosecond lasers, are increasingly becoming easy-to-use plug and play devices suitable for a wide range of industrial and biomedical applications. Fifteen years ago, the volume of these lasers was still very large, requiring daily cleaning of optical components, regular maintenance of cooling water, and continuous optimization of laser parameters. Nowada...

Germany’s Office of the Federal President has announced the nominations for the German Future Prize 2025 (“Deutscher Zukunftspreis”). This year’s nominees include Dr. Mark Bischoff, Dr. Gregor Stobrawa and Dirk Mühlhoff from Zeiss Medical Technology (ZMT), for their project for minimally-invasive lenticule extraction to correct refractive errors. Nominated: Dirk Mühlhoff, Mark Bischoff, and Gr...

The team from the Photonic Systems Laboratory at the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne has developed a chip level laser source that can improve the performance of semiconductor lasers while generating shorter wavelengths.This groundbreaking work, led by Professor Camille Br è s and postdoctoral researcher Marco Clementi from the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne, represe...

Recently, the High Power Laser Physics Joint Laboratory of Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, completed the research of hard X-ray zoom beam splitting imaging on the micro focus X-ray source for the first time, and solved the problem of beam splitter limitation in the hard X-ray band. The related achievements are titled "Bifocal photo scene imaging in the...
