The Photonics Frontiers Award 2025, brought to you by the team behind Electro Optics, is now open for entries!
The Photonics100 at Photonics West: Saïd Rouifed on designing high-power laser diodes
Saïd Rouifed, a Technical Manager at Laser Components Canada and a Photonics100 honoree, will talk at Photonics West about the groundbreaking results he and his team achieved with 1,550nm pulsed Fabry-Perot lasers with single-junction diodes.
He says these devices promise output powers exceeding 19W peak-to-peak, and offer advantages for the growing demands of compact lidar systems, medical instruments, and military applications.
The Photonics100 at Photonics West: Noah Rubin on metasurface optics
Noah Rubin, Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of California San Diego and a Photonics100 honoree for 2025, is giving a talk on metasurface polarisation optics at Photonics West 2025. Electro Optics caught up with him during the judging process for this year's Photonics100.
How can photonics get aerospace and defence innovations ready for launch?
Pu Jian from Cailabs, Jason Ball from Liquid Instruments and Kenny McCormick from Leonardo UK introduce and answer questions on photonics applications for the aerospace and defence sector.
