Ever wonder how facial recognition has come around to be implemented in smartphones today? Vertical cavity surface-emitting lasers, (abbreviated VCSEL, pronounced “vixel”) are to thank for such ...

Organic transistors are slowly taking over in the transistor space. Invented a few decades ago, they have been gaining more and more attention and proving themselves in such applications as flexible ...

Most are used to seeing lenses with very set radii of curvature. Typical lenses have surfaces that are plano, convex, concave, or any combination of those. Even in the cases of aspherical lenses or ...

One area where photonics is integrated prolifically is the aerospace and defense world. Giants of the aerospace and defense industry rely heavily on implementing photonics technologies to successfully ...

We have previously discussed metamaterials in an overview regarding their uses in lens design and optical cloaking, but the metamaterial realm stretches much further than that. Today, let us dive into ...

Today’s blog post is sponsored by Connet Laser– a leading developer and manufacturer of fiber lasers and amplifiers. Optical illusions fool the eyes and play tricks on the brain. They mess with human ...

Whether you are new to laser marking or have already had significant experience in laser marking technologies, it’s a quest for continuous improvement of the quality and contrasts of laser marks. ...

Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality are two technologies that are becoming commonplace in the modern world. Virtual Reality is defined as an immersive technology where the user is blocked off from the ...

The cornea protects the eye from debris and germs from the environment and accounts for roughly two-thirds of the eye’s focusing power. Corneal imaging is critical in diagnosing and determining treatment ...

Two-photon excitation micoscopy (a.k.a. TPEF/ 2PEF) is the most common type of multiphoton fluorescence microscopy. It is a very interesting and useful technique for its ability to lock down on very ...
