The new partnership will see Tematys align the technological sourcing requirements of French organisations with the capabilities of Chromacity’s ultrafast lasers
The device triggers a chemical process that converts CO2 and hydrogen into methane and carbon monoxide
The carbon capture device could process up to one megaton of carbon dioxide per year
Andy Extance finds the pains and gains of laser light’s different behaviour in water for oceanographers using lidar
The satelitte will be capable of measuring the energy efficiency of buildings at scale (Satellite Vu)
Satellite Vu has raised £3.6m to launch the first satellite constellation capable of imaging the thermal footprint of any building on the planet every 1-2 hours
Nicholas Goffin, research associate at Loughborough University, investigates where energy savings can be made in laser processing
In this application note a Raman microscope, with a heated stage, is used to observe phase transitions in two polymers - polyethylene and nylon-6.
High progress in optoelectronics technology, especially designed for infrared wavelength region (IR), is observed. The use of various spectroscopic methods allows to obtain detailed information on the chemical analysis of the leaking gas. Each of the spectroscopy methods is dedicated to different types of concentration measurements. We encourage you to read the article that explains and presents laser gas leak detection with infrared.
This paper explains how to use the MID-IR linear detector array in the sorting area. High performance optical sorting systems are the main application of multielement detectors. Optical sorting can be used in the mining, food, chemical and pharmacological industries.
Due to climate change, population growth and many other factors, farms will need to adapt to ever-worsening conditions. Spectroscopy plays a key role in developing the future of these farms.
Andy Extance finds out how the SPEXS project is looking to extend single photon counting further into the infrared

As microscopes become ever more powerful, a growing band of businesses are racing to make the latest technologies more accessible and more affordable, reports Rebecca Pool
Illustration of a three-dimensional crystal with various types of confining centres. (a) Crystal with four confining centres, each trapping waves (yellow) in all three dimensions simultaneously. (b) Crystal with a linear confining centre where waves can propagate in one dimension, analogous to an optical fibre. (c) Crystal with a planar confining centre where waves can propagate in two dimensions, analogous to a 2D electron gas. (Image: Vos et al.)
