The annual Photonics Festival in Taiwan (PFT) and its affiliated Opto, Display, LED Lighting, Solar, Optics and Plant Factory Taiwan exhibition present the platform for the Taiwan photonics industry and the photonics companies in the Asia Pacific region.
Using miniaturized laser technology, a tiny sensor has been built at the Vienna University of Technology which can test the chemical composition of liquids
An advance has been achieved towards next generation ultrasonic imaging with potentially 1,000 times higher resolution than today's medical ultrasounds. Researchers with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) have demonstrated a technique for producing, detecting and controlling ultrahigh frequency sound waves at the nanometer scale.
Tomography enables the interior of a vast range of objects to be depicted in 3D – from cellular structures to technical appliances. Researchers from the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI) have now devised a method that opens up new scales of tomographic imaging and will thus make the detailed study of representative volumes of biological tissue and materials science specimens possible in future.
Daylight Solutions, Inc., a leading manufacturer of molecular detection and imaging solutions in the mid-infrared, has received the CLEO 2014 Innovation Award Grand Prize for Spero, the world’s first laser-based infrared microscopy platform.
Nanolab Technologies, a Silicon Valley-based analytical services lab, has purchased and installed new defect detection tools to its 48,000 square foot advanced laboratory, its fourth announced capacity expansion this year.
Lamda Guard, a company based in Atlantic Canada, has signed an agreement with leading aircraft manufacturer Airbus to test a breakthrough innovation designed to deflect unwanted bright light or laser sources from impacting jetliner flight paths, and causing pilot disorientation or injury.
ActLight SA and A*STAR Institute of Microelectronics (IME) of Singapore have successfully built the "Dynamic Photodiode" using A*STAR IME's photonics technology. ActLight's patented Dynamic Photodiode technology introduces a new way of using a photodiode providing advantages such as high output signal and low noise. Due to its high internal gain the Dynamic Photodiode eliminates the need for any amplifier and can interact directly with CMOS circuits.
Today, QD Vision, Inc., the leading manufacturer of quantum dot optical components for LCD products, announced that Top Victory Electronics (Taiwan) Co., Ltd. (TPV), the world’s largest PC monitor manufacturer and fourth largest LCD TV manufacturer, will be showcasing monitors featuring QD Vision’s Color IQTM optics during COMPUTEX 2014, June 3-7, in Taipei, Taiwan.
Nine pioneering scientists have been named this year's recipients of the Kavli Prizes -- prizes that recognize scientists for their seminal advances in astrophysics, nanoscience and neuroscience. This year's laureates were selected for pioneering the theory of cosmic inflation, for transformative contributions to the field of nano-optics and for the discovery of specialized brain networks for memory and cognition.
