09.08.25 -- 5 Things To Know About Micro-Molding, 3 Optical Filter Mistakes, How Multimodal Imaging Is Reshaping Photonics & More

AXUV photodetectors offer fast, low-noise electron and X-ray detection for microscopy and surface science, with customizable, compact, vacuum-compatible designs.

A DIY quantum scanning microscope is a viable option for users who prefer to modify the experiment setup or cannot reserve adequate time on a shared instrument.

A high-power laser research center was supported with custom detectors and calorimeters, enabling precise energy measurements critical for advancing groundbreaking physics.

Proper optical filter selection is essential for precision imaging. Avoid common mistakes with AOI, transition width, wavefront error, and surface defects to ensure optimal performance.

Micro-molding technically is not new; it's been around at least as long as the "Brick" cell phone. However not every industry was ready for it 25 years ago when micro electronics was a completely different industry.

Linear ultrasonic motors (USM) are used as an autofocusing actuator for Canon camera lenses, offering high speed and smooth drive.

Image quality relies heavily on fluorescence filter design and performance, making filters as crucial to final results as sample preparation and fluorophore choice.
