  1. Extending The Lifetime Of Atoms Using A Mirror 10/13/2015

    Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have succeeded in an experiment where they get an artificial atom to survive ten times longer than normal by positioning the atom in front of a mirror. The findings were recently published in the journal Nature Physics.

  2. Acton Optics & Coatings Introduces 193nm XL Excimer Laser Mirror Coating 7/31/2015

    Acton Optics & Coatings recently developed a new 193nm XL high-reflectance coating ideal for low-fluence, high-repetition excimer laser applications. This new coating is also great for micromachining and materials processing applications.

  3. Northrop Grumman Successfully Delivers Deformable Mirror For World's Largest Solar Telescope 7/30/2015

    The world's largest ground-based solar telescope is one step closer to operation with the acceptance of the deformable mirror engineered by AOA Xinetics, a Northrop Grumman Corporation (NYSE: NOC) company.

  4. Laser Research Optics Offers Three Plano Types Of Copper Laser Mirrors 7/21/2015

    Laser Research Optics has introduced a line of high-quality gold plated copper laser mirrors for Mazak and Mitsubishi high power lasers that are in-stock for overnight shipment.

  5. Better Welding With Speedy Laser Mirrors 5/28/2015

    Silicon micromirrors can guide laser beams at extremely high speeds, allowing operators to dose heat input to workpieces with absolute precision. But to date they have not been robust enough to be used for laser cutting and welding.

  6. Scientists Tune X-Rays With Tiny Mirrors 5/5/2015

    Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have created a new way of manipulating high-intensity X-rays, which will allow researchers to select extremely brief but precise X-ray bursts for their experiments.

  7. Acal BFi Launches New Range Of Ultra-High Performance Femtosecond Laser Mirrors 4/20/2015

    Acal BFi, the European leader in advanced technology solutions, have launched a new range of ultra-high performance femtosecond laser mirrors to the market.

  8. Mirror Mounts For High Precision Optics 3/23/2015

    Ultra-high precision optics are useless unless they are positioned with absolute precision and stress-free. To fulfil this need, Optical Surfaces Ltd designs and manufactures mounts specifically for use with parabolic, spherical and flat mirrors to optimize the optical performance of optical systems.

  9. Nanoscale Mirrored Cavities Amplify, Connect Quantum Memories 1/28/2015

    The idea of computing systems based on controlling atomic spins just got a boost from new research performed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and the U.S.

  10. Magnetic Mirrors Enable New Technologies By Reflecting Light In Uncanny Ways 10/16/2014

    As in Alice’s journey through the looking-glass to Wonderland, mirrors in the real world can sometimes behave in surprising and unexpected ways, including a new class of mirror that works like no other.
