APE 2025 is about to take place

Marvin Panaco, a subsidiary of Spectris plc located in Egham, Surrey, UK, announced the launch of its new laser diffraction particle size measurement instrument Mastersizer 3000+. Mastersizer 3000+utilizes integrated artificial intelligence and data science driven software solutions, providing method development support, data quality feedback, instrument monitoring, and troubleshooting recommendat...

Rutronik has expanded its optoelectronic product portfolio by introducing green and blue laser diodes packaged in metal cans TO38 and TO56 using AM OSRAM. They leave a deep impression with improved beam quality and stricter electro-optic tolerances. The power level of the laser diode ranges from 10mW to 100mW. Diodes such as PLT3 520FB and PLT5 450GB are now available on the market.The flexibility...

On August 6th local time, Luminar, a leading publicly traded company in the field of LiDAR, announced a $422 million debt restructuring and raised $100 million in new capital. This measure marks Luminar taking solid steps in optimizing its capital structure and enhancing its financial stability.In early May this year, this laser radar manufacturer released an open letter disclosing a major strateg...

The researchers estimate the period from 2023 to 2028. EUV lithography will address the limitations of traditional optical lithography, which has reached its physical limits in terms of resolution. The shorter wavelength of EUV light allows for the creation of smaller features and tighter patterns on silicon wafers, enabling the manufacture of advanced microchips with greater transistor densities....

The Purdue University team in the United States has captured alkali metal atoms (cesium) in integrated photonic circuits, which can serve as transistors for photons (the smallest energy unit of light). These captured atoms demonstrate for the first time the potential of cold atom integrated nanophotonic circuits to construct quantum networks. The research results were published in the latest issue...
