Geopolitics and export controls have significantly impacted the accessibility of coating materials for laser optics

Four major trending topics in machine vision technology include edge artificial intelligence (edge AI), AI paired with high-resolution sensors, event-based machine vision, and affordability of SWIR sensor technology.

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and multispectral imaging (MSI) are two related technologies that make use of specialized vision systems to acquire extra image information from extended regions of the electromagnetic spectrum aside from the visible spectrum.

コネクテッドワールドを実現する高速かつ安全なワイヤレス通信、フリースペース光通信とは？レーザーを用いたフリースペース光 (FSO) 通信には、衛星から望遠鏡のような地上の基地局への伝送、衛星から別の衛星への伝送、地上の異なる場所間の伝送等が含まれます。

温度変化によるフォーカスの再調整を不要にする、アサーマルレンズの仕組みを解説。アサーマル化したレンズを使用することで広い温度範囲にわたり高解像力を維持できるようになる。温度変化がレンズに与える影響から、それらを軽減するレンズのアサーマル化の仕組み、及びその効果について説明する。

不要な迷光を最小化するSCHWARZ ブラックミラーについて。不要な透過は、ミラーの基板を直接通過したり、基板内でゴースト反射を起こしたりするため、レーザーシステムの性能を低下させ、さらにはレーザーの安全性の問題を引き起こすこともあります。

より身近になった紫外 (UV) レーザーが切り開く新たな可能性。従来のUVレーザーは極めて高価で大型だったが、高エネルギーのUV光子により、精度と性能が向上し、新世代の小型・低価格のUVレーザーがますます身近に。半導体検査、顕微鏡、殺菌の進化に貢献。

Specialized coatings can minimize thermal lensing in ultrafast laser systems, which are particularly susceptible to detrimental thermal effects.

Mounting flat mirrors by their edges in a kinematic mount imparts stress onto the mirror surface. This results in distortion and reduced quality of the reflected wavefront, which is especially noticeable when using high-quality mirrors. Stemmed mirrors, on the other hand, are mounted from a smaller diameter “stem” protruding from the back of the mirror, resulting in significantly reduced stress on the mirror surface, high stability, and cost reduction and can be used as a replacement for a more expensive and complex kinematic mount and a conventional mirror.
