Photonics Frontiers Award 2025 shortlist announced: pioneering applications set to shine
The shortlist for the 2025 Photonics Frontiers Award has been officially unveiled.
Thales launches GenF to advance inertial confinement fusion with high-powered lasers
Thales has inaugurated GenF as a standalone entity, backed by CEA and CNRS, to develop laser-driven inertial confinement fusion reactors – for scalable clean energy
Photonic layer security post-quantum transmission system
CyberRidge’s unbreakable photonic encryption tech ensures post-quantum data security at 100Gbps+
Robust optical ground stations for LEO laser communications
Cailabs' Tilba-L10 ground station overcomes atmospheric turbulence to greenlight stable, high-speed laser comms from space.
“Tilba-L10 is a groundbreaking optical communications system that represents a paradigm shift in satellite-ground data exchange,” said Jean-François Morizur, CEO of Cailabs, of the optical ground station project. It was developed in part thanks to a strategic collaboration called KERAUNOS between the French deep tech start-up together with Unseenlabs and the French Defence Innovation Agency (AID).
