Gentec-EO’s team has been actively working on a new laser power and energy display device named MIRO ALTITUDE in the past year. The product is expected to be available in early 2022, but no exact date was shared with the public yet.

Bright Ideas presents the most captivating news and innovations in photonics. This week, high energy lasers (HEL) are the hot topic among academicians and world leaders alike, the "father" of fiber optics is honored by Google, and plenty of photonics firms are making gains with mergers and acquisitions. 

Following its recent launch of integrating sphere laser power detector series, Gentec-EO now adds another model of fast laser power detectors, the IS50A-1KW-RSI.

Bright Ideas presents the most captivating news and innovations in photonics. This week, researchers debut a virtual reality laser laboratory to meet the challenges of high costs and educational expertise, and the Optical Society of America forgoes its 100-plus-year moniker in exchange for a more modern take. 

Laser Components USA, Inc. is pleased to announce its newest partnership with Photon Wave, adding to its UVC LED product line, with 100mW 265nm technology.

Laser Components USA, Inc, is pleased to announce a major update to the LETO SLM series. The LETO - 3 offers three different versions, all optimized for wavelength ranges in the visible (420-650 nm), a version for the near IR (650 -1100 nm) and a fast (180 Hz) version for Color Field Sequential (CFS) operation in the visible with color- adjustable RGB LASER.

Researchers from MIT, along with Holoeye’ s PLUTO-2.1 SLM, have figured out how to use AI in generating holograms that can run on a laptop. Presenting three-dimensional (3D) scenes that have continuous depth sensation has an extreme impact in the areas of virtual and augmented reality, training, education, and human computer interaction.

The BeamSquared® system is a compact and fully automated tool for measuring the propagation characteristics of CW and pulsed laser systems from the UV to NIR to Telecom wavelengths. 

Cleaning laser optics follows the same steps as the quality inspection at LASER COMPONENTS. In almost forty years, we have gained experience in this process, and we are happy to share it with you. Follow these tips and tricks and you will be able to maintain the same quality standards as our optics production.

In this episode of “Metrology Matters,” two experts in the field, Bruce Truax, Director of Engineering at Zygo, and Kate Medicus, CEO of Ruda Cardinal, give us an introduction to laser interferometry. They discuss an overview of laser interferometry, why it is important in producing small optics, its applications in the industry, and the best practices.

Learn how to measure your laser beam in this video that describes the basics of laser beam profiling. Find out which different shapes of "beam profile" or spatial energy distribution are required for different laser applications, such as welding and cutting.

The Ariel is an ultra-compact laser power meter designed for OEM and end-user applications in closed and confined spaces, such as additive manufacturing, metal cutting, and welding. This all-in-one power meter is battery-powered and requires no water or fan cooling. Able to fit in the palm of your hand, the system measures laser powers from 200mW to 8KW, and at a wide range of wavelengths, including 440-550nm green and blue lasers.

Join us for a virtual tour at our Jerusalem production site to learn how we provide a one-stop-shop solution, from design to manufacture, assembly and QA, for optical components and assemblies for high-power laser applications.

The BEAMAGE-4M is a beam profiling camera designed for accurate profile measurements of very small beams. The camera utilizes a USB 3.0 for the transfer rates up to 10X faster than regular USB 2.0 connections. Check out the video for a brief introduction.
