CoreOptics Inc., a leading designer and manufacturer of 40 Gbps and 10 Gbps optical networking subsystems, and ADVA Optical Networking today announced joint development of the second generation of 10 Gbps Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation (MLSE-2) technology on ADVA Optical Networking’s FSP 3000 Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) platform.
A new EU-funded project to boost the capacity and efficiency of the next generation of optical networks has just got underway. The PHASORS ('Phase sensitive amplifier systems and optical regenerators and their applications') initiative is funded under the 'Information and communication technology' (ICT) Theme of the Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) to the tune of EUR 3.9 million.
A new line of silicon-based products and ultra VOA arrays is available from AMS Technologies in Germany. The manufacturer is Kotura, Inc. is a worldwide leader in silicon photonics.
The PRIMA facility with TNO's Star Separators was successfully tested during a "first light" test at the beginning of September. PRIMA will set a new benchmark in astrometry and will enable exoplanet detection with high precision astrometric measurements as well as imaging of faint objects.
The PRIMA instrument of the ESO Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) recently saw "first light" at its new home atop Cerro Paranal in Chile. When fully operational, PRIMA will boost the capabilities of the VLTI to see sources much fainter than any previous interferometers, and enable astrometric precision unmatched by any other existing astronomical facility.
Zecotek Photonics Inc. today announced the latest performance parameters of its 3D2D Display System and that the Company is preparing for negotiations with selected OEMs. The enhancements to the 3D technology include significant improvements in overall clarity, increasing concurrent perspectives twofold (from 40 to 80) and increasing the effective 3D viewing angle from 25 to 40 degrees.
Combining an innovative ergonomic design with a reduced footprint, the Eclipse MA200 incorporates an integrated intelligent nosepiece, making it ideal for inspection, QC, evaluation, measuring and analysis of key parameters in metallic and electronic components in the automotive, electronics and materials-related industries.
FIRSTSIGHT VISION, part of the STEMMER IMAGING Group, has reported a 13.4% growth in revenue in the financial year to 30 June 2008. Director Mark Williamson commented: "This is an outstanding set of results, particularly considering the current economic downturn in the UK. It reflects both the quality of the optics, illumination, cable and software products that we sell and the added value that we bring to our OEM customers through our partnership schemes. Of course the entire team at the company is also to be congratulated on their superb efforts throughout the year."
You might think that shaking and freezing a state-of-the-art, meticulously crafted machine is a bad idea. But when it comes to firing telescopes and their instruments into the frigid cold of space, the more you test your hardware, the better.
Luxtera, the worldwide leader in Silicon CMOS Photonics, today announced that the German private foundation Berthold Leibinger Stiftung awarded L. Cary Gunn, co-founder and chief technology officer for Luxtera, with the international prize Berthold Leibinger Innovationspreis. The jury selected Gunn for his innovative work in the development of laser technology with specific advancements in Silicon CMOS Photonics.
