Doctors at the Universities of Leicester and Nottingham are collaborating to use a magnetic resonance technique to image and quantify the air spaces inside the lungs. The results of their research may lead to a link between childhood disease and later degenerative lung disease (COPD).
American Laser Centers, the largest provider of laser hair removal and other noninvasive aesthetic services in the United States, announced it has been acquired by Chicago-based private equity firms Code Hennessy & Simmons LLC ("CHS") and The Edgewater Funds. Specializing in private equity investments and recapitalizations of middle market companies in partnership with management, CHS and The Edgewater Funds become the majority owners of the company.
Power Technology, Inc. will now offer high power Blue and Violet laser diodes for use with our PM laser module, 405 nm at 60mW, increasing cost savings and allowing for additional selection variety.
Coherent, Inc. has introduced the AVIA™ 532-38, a diode-pumped, solid state laser which delivers over 38 W of output at 532 nm (at 120 kHz) with a pulsewidth of only 45 nsec.
Infinitely secure cryptography that renders any computer unhackable. Computers that can solve the structure of a complicated protein at the drop of a hat. Programs to decrypt complicated enemy secrets. Optical data connections up to 100 times faster than current technology allows.
Dutch researcher Bas Bougie has developed a laser system to investigate soot development in diesel engines. Small soot particles are not retained by a soot filter but are, however, more harmful than larger soot particles. Therefore, soot development needs to be tackled at the source. Laser Induced Incandescence (LII) is a technique that reveals exactly where soot is generated and can be used by project partners to develop cleaner diesel engines.
Researchers at the University of St Andrews have developed a new technology that could enhance early detection of cancer and potentially save lives.
One of the major problems facing users of advanced laser scanning microscopes is the amount and complexity of the image acquisition and microscope controls available. Even in integrated microscope control and imaging applications, learning to control the microscope, drive external accessories, manage the digital acquisition process, manipulate the resulting images and store the results can be a substantial barrier to beginners and advanced users alike.
The California Institute of Technology and the University of California have received a $200 million commitment over nine years from the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation toward the further development and construction of the Thirty-Meter Telescope (TMT). Funding under this commitment will be shared equally between the two universities, with matching gifts from the two institutions expected to bring the total to $300 million. When built, TMT will be the largest telescope in the world.
It’s a rare case of all light and no heat: A new study reports that a laser can be used to switch a film of vanadium dioxide back and forth between reflective and transparent states without heating or cooling it.
