When an infrared laser was beamed through this grating, the light was deflected with an efficiency of over 50%. Higher efficiencies should be possible with further work, the team says.

Using a novel method, beams of laser light can be deflected using air alone. An invisible grating made only of air is not only immune to damage from the laser light, but it also preserves the ...

Researchers in biomedical physics and biology have significantly improved micro-computed tomography, more specifically imaging with phase contrast and high brilliance X-ray radiation. They have ...

The introduction of optical grating couplers, integrated with the Company's modulators, enable light to be efficiently coupled into and out of the modulator, improving the overall efficacy of an ...

Omega Optical offers “ Efficiency Replicated” gratings which extend the useable spectrum of affordable transmission gratings deeper than ever into the UV range. Created for OEM volume needs, this ...

Optical clocks might become the atomic clocks of the future. Their "pendulum", i.e. the regular oscillation process which each clock needs, is an oscillation in the range of the visible light.

Yokogawa has announced the launch of its AQ6376 optical spectrum analyzer (OSA), which employs grating-based OSA capabilities to measure signals with a wavelength beyond 3 µm.
