A French start-up detailing its hopes of being the first to commercialise quantum single-photon light sources represents the first time EPIC has focused on quantum technology at one of its events
Matthew Dale reports from the European Photonic Industry Consortium’s Executive Meeting on Industrial Lasers, where it was explained how CO2 lasers could be used to produce the next generation of computer processors
Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) are impacting the biomedical field by providing fast, reliable and cost-effective diagnostic devices. These new tools allow for non-invasive detection by providing exciting and new functionalities, such as compact imaging devices that can be used to obtain chemical and morphological information at the same time. Another interesting application is the development of point-of-care instruments based on PICs that can continuously monitor our health, allowing clinical diagnoses to be carried out at any place and at any time.
