Recently, Scientific Photonics, a supplier of silicon photonic integrated circuits (PICs) headquartered in Grenoble, announced that it has successfully integrated III-V-DFB lasers and amplifiers with standard silicon photonic technology into the production process of Tower Semiconductor.By utilizing proprietary technology and standard silicon photonics, Scientific Photonics has achieved full inte...

In today's rapidly developing technological era, structured light laser technology has become an important tool in the fields of 3D measurement and image capture. The core of this technology lies in a magical device called Diffractive Optical Elements (DOE), which can precisely control and shape laser beams, creating various complex light patterns. But what exactly is DOE? How does it work? Let Ho...

In EU project ALBATROSS, Fraunhofer IWS has developed battery housing for E-vehicles.Laser processes with dynamic beam shaping create stable joints even in challenging material combinations. Recent applications demonstrate how to eliminate filler materials while improving quality, energy efficiency, and production logic.Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology (IWS) will present novel...

Particle physicists have detected for the first time a new decay of the Higgs boson, revealing subtle differences predicted by the standard model and potentially pointing to new physics beyond it. The research results are published in the journal Physical Review Letters.The theoretically predicted Higgs boson since the 1960s was finally discovered in the European CERN laboratory in 2012. As a quan...
