Needless to say, we’re fascinated by LEDs, laser diodes, and other blinkies. Although we can get just about any light emitting thing, the data sheets aren’t always accurate or available. For his ...

Belgian research lab Imec is claiming to have created a metal halide perovskite LED stack that emits 1,000x more light “than state-of-the-art OLEDs”, it said. With the assistance of an external laser, ...

Last August, the town of Irondequoit, N.Y., near Rochester, opened its $13 million, 37,800-sf public library. The entry lobby is illuminated by organic light-emitting diode (OLED) fixtures, one of the ...

Laser is of prime importance in Optical memories, Fiber optic communications, Military applications, Surgical procedures, CD players, Printers etc. Various forms of lasers like Gallium Arsenide laser, ...

If you love the lasers of science fiction, rejoice because the future will be full of them, according to Nobel laureate Shuji Nakamura, co-inventor of the blue light-emitting diode (LED). The power ...

Called RLD90QZW8, “original technology allows Rohm to reduce the temperature dependence of the laser wavelength to just Δ11.6nm – 0.10nm/°C”, said the company. “This makes it possible to narrow the ...

Before going into exterior lighting solutions for all things automotive, it's necessary for us to remember that – in the olden days of black and white everything – horse-drawn carriage lamps used ...

When we think about the onward march of automotive technology, headlights aren’t usually the first thing that come to mind. Engines, fuel efficiency, and the switch to electric power are all more ...

In 1962, 50 years ago today, Nick Holonyak Jr. and his team at GE invented the Light Emitting Diode. While LED lights are almost everywhere today — from bridges to headlights to keychain flashlights ...

Efficient 1.5 W CW and 9 mJ quasi-CW TEM00 mode operation of a compact diode-laser-pumped 2.94 µm Er:YAG laser Sheaumann has developed the first commercially available diode-laser-pumped continuously ...

With optoacoustics having "come of age" as an imaging technique, the hottest topics in the sector now revolve around development of effective clinical systems for human applications. Suitable laser ...

Laser diodes are semiconductors that generate light and amplify it using repeated reflection or "optical feedback." Once the light has achieved desirable optical gain, laser diodes release it as ...
