At the Met Office, we use a blend of cutting-edge technology and time-tested methods to observe and record the atmosphere’s most important elements. Here’s how we measure sunshine, cloud, visibility ...

When two black holes merge or two neutron stars collide, gravitational waves can be generated. They spread at the speed of ...

If there’s one lesson to be learned from [Aled Cuda]’s pulsed laser driver, it’s that you can treat the current limits on electronic components as a suggestion if the current duration is measured in ...

SAXONBURG, Pa., Sept. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Coherent Corp. (COHR), a global leader in photonics, today announced a breakthrough in short-reach optical interconnect technology with the ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois have pulled off a laser first: they built a new kind of eye-safe laser that works at room temperature, using a buried layer of glass-like material instead of ...

Semiconductor laser diodes (SLDs) are often packaged with a photodiode. The output current from this photodiode can be monitored to regulate the output power intensity of the laser diode. SLDs, ...

Abstract: High-power radio-over-fiber (RoF) links are one of the supporting techniques to deploy remote minimalist antenna units (AUs) with photodiode-drive antenna architectures in next-generation ...

Bambu Lab's latest flagship 3D printer does a whole lot more than 3D printing for serious makers, and promises to be good at every one of its tasks. The H2D desktop printer can print using two ...

The IG26H series is a new addition to the existing line of high-quality IG26 extended InGaAs infrared (IR) PIN photodiodes. The IG26H series offers low dark current under reverse bias condition, with ...
