Astrolight CEO Laurynas Mačiulis explains how laser satellite communication could ease spectrum congestion, increase data capacity, and raise new engineering and policy questions for space ...

A research team at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, has developed new laser technology that could lead to tiny, cost-effective biosensors. The sensors integrate lasers and optics together on ...

Investigating laser technologies in bioelectronics, this review highlights optical principles that optimize fabrication ...

Solid-state lasers require optical pumping; the most efficient method would be to use a narrow-line source at a suitable absorption frequency larger than the laser’s, but as close as possible. The ...

There are significantly different architectures for what are known as “atomic” clocks. Optically driven atomic clocks offer a new set of performance attributes. The optical atomic clocks use paired ...
