    Imec, a world-leading research and innovation hub in nanoelectronics and digital technologies, reports for the first time the use of a 13.5 nm High Harmonic Generation source for the printing of 20nm pitch line/spaces using interference lithographic imaging of an Inpria metal-oxide resist under high-numerical-aperture (high-NA) conditions.

  2. Switching Nanolight On And Off 2/4/2021

    A team of researchers led by Columbia University has developed a unique platform to program a layered crystal, producing imaging capabilities beyond common limits on demand.

  3. Raptor SWIR Cameras Improve Productivity For The Remote Sensing Of Vegetation 1/14/2021

    Forage Mass Monitoring (FFM) analysis has been traditionally done using biomass sampling to calculate biomass yield per hectare. Raptor Photonics has recently published an application note showing how reflectance spectroscopy methods using drone based remote sensing systems are now being used to derive well-established vegetation indices (VIs) more efficiently than biomass sampling.

  4. Xenics Introduces DIONE 1280 Core 12/3/2020

    Dione 1280 has been announced today as the new high resolution uncooled long-wave infrared (LWIR) core from Xenics. Xenics is Europe’s leading developer and manufacturer of advanced infrared sensors, cameras and customized imaging solutions from the short-wave infrared (SWIR) to the LWIR realm. Dione 1280 is an SXGA LWIR camera core optimized to meet today’s increased demand for smaller size, lower weight, higher resolution and lower power (SWaP).

  5. Photron Limited Of Japan Announces Acquisition Of Photonic Lattice, Inc. 12/2/2020

    Photron Limited, a world leader in high-speed imaging technology, and a subsidiary of the Imagica Group, has announced the acquisition of all shares of Photonic Lattice, Inc. a pioneer in the photonic crystal technology widely employed in optical telecommunications and polarization imaging.

  6. A Microscope For Everyone: Young Research Team From Leibnz IPHT Develops Optical Toolbox For Research And Education 11/25/2020

    Modern microscopes used for biological imaging are expensive, are located in specialized laboratories and require highly qualified staff. To research novel, creative approaches to address urgent scientific issues — for example in the fight against infectious diseases such as Covid-19 — is thus primarily reserved for scientists at well-equipped research institutions in rich countries.

  7. Researchers Invent Broad-Band Tunable Terahertz Absorber 11/23/2020

    Recently, a research team led by Prof. SHENG Zhigao from the High Magnetic Field Laboratory of the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), along with collaborators in HFIPS and ShanghaiTech University, invented a broad-band tunable terahertz (THz) absorber based on a strongly correlated electron oxide material.

  8. An INRS Research Team Pushes Back The Boundaries Of High-Energy Laser Pulses 11/20/2020

    Using the Advanced Laser Light Source (ALLS) facility, the research team of Professor François Légaré of the Institut national de la recherche scientifique (INRS) has pushed back the boundaries of high-energy pulse propagation in a nonlinear medium through the observation of high-energy multidimensional solitary states (MDSS).
