Physicists have forced light to behave like electrons trapped in a magnetic field, reproducing the quantum Hall effect with photons for the first time. The experiment, carried out on an optical fiber ...

Introducing the Bettersizer 2600 Plus, a combition of laser diffraction and dynamic imaging to deliver advanced ...

The use of optical lasers between orbiting satellites are commonplace. Less common is using lasers from Earth to satellites.

The Berlin-based climate-tech startup has developed a micro-LiDAR and SWIR imager small enough to fly on a nanosatellite, and claims it can detect a methane leak the size of a leaking car from orbit.

Swedish sensor whiz Insplorion AB has quietly struck a deal in principle to offload its hydrogen sensor business to fellow Swede Mann Teknik AB for SEK 5.5 mill ...

APL is developing a comprehensive suite of capabilities to ensure that additively manufactured parts can perform predictably in mission-critical applications — no matter where, when, or on what ...

The field of Earth Observation (EO) is continuously advancing with the development of new optical remote sensing techniques and instrument concepts. These ...

When molecules fall apart, their electric charge doesn't stay put—it rearranges as bonds stretch and break. An international team of scientists has now tracked these ultrafast changes in the small ...

A research team at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, has developed new laser technology that could lead to tiny, cost-effective biosensors. The sensors integrate lasers and optics together on ...

Astrolight CEO Laurynas Mačiulis explains how laser satellite communication could ease spectrum congestion, increase data capacity, and raise new engineering and policy questions for space ...

Imaging spectroscopic ellipsometry delivers nanometer-level sensitivity and spatial resolution, addressing the limitations of conventional metrology techniques.
