INDUSTRY INSIGHTS

Temperature Dependence In Optical Filters

Thoughtful design and substrate selection are vital to minimize substantial shifts in interference filter spectra due to temperature fluctuations.

Piezo-Based Nanopositioning For Ophthalmology

Several laser methods have emerged to influence the curvature of the cornea to correct visual acuity. All have one decisive factor in common: laser beam control that requires high-precision positioning.

Salvaging Fabricated Optics That Don't Meet Specifications

An innovative re-polishing service can give an optic new life when the original dielectric coating does not meet the specifications or was damaged during the manufacturing process.

SWIR Multimode Tracking (MMT) Developments At SUI

Explore advancements in SWIR multi-mode tracking with SHIELD and 1280JDSX-MMT, integrating laser range finders for enhanced imaging, target acquisition, and situational awareness.

Nanopositioners: What Are They Good For?

Nanopositioner applications, utility, and functionality often are misunderstood — to the detriment of researchers whose experiments might benefit from the stability these instruments offer.
