Opton Laser commercializes ultra-high contrast third-order autocorrelators

As is well known, food and beverage product manufacturers have strict requirements in ensuring the hygiene and cleanliness of their equipment. Once these devices and components are designed or manufactured improperly, they are likely to cause pollution, ultimately leading to health hazards, brand reputation damage, and expensive recall actions. The shortage of labor and raw materials further exace...

In view of the reconstruction problem of stack imaging technology in noisy environment, Lin Nan's team from Shanghai Institute of Optics and Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, proposed an innovative method ProPtyNet based on unsupervised physical neural network, which is expected to be applied to chip CD measurement and defect detection. The article was published in Optics and lasers in engin...

The team from the School of Information and Communication Engineering at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China has proposed for the first time a laser radar instrument based on the dispersion Fourier transform method, forming a new demodulation mechanism. This instrument breaks through the cross limitations of measurement speed, accuracy, and distance, and has unique advanta...
