  1. UCF Develops The World’s First Optical Oscilloscope 12/13/2021

    A team from UCF has developed the world’s first optical oscilloscope, an instrument that is able to measure the electric field of light. The device converts light oscillations into electrical signals, much like hospital monitors convert a patient’s heartbeat into electrical oscillation.

  2. Quantum Communication Research Network Launched 12/10/2021

    As digitalization continues to make headway, finding ways of increasing the security of the exchange of sensitive information becomes ever more important. One of the main methods proposed to achieve this is a communication network that operates based on the laws of quantum physics.

  3. Revolutionising Imaging Through An Optical Fibre The Width Of A Human Hair 12/9/2021

    A new imaging technique, allowing 3D imaging at video rates through a fibre the width of a human hair, could transform imaging for a wide range of applications in industrial inspection and environmental monitoring. In the longer term the technique could be further developed for applications in medical imaging.

  4. AdlOptica Objective Lenses Reduce Aberrations And Enable Processing Of Optical Substrates At Multiple Focal Point Depths 11/23/2021

    Edmund Optics®, a leading global manufacturer and supplier of optical components, is pleased to offer two new objectives from AdlOptica that enable a growing range of laser optics applications.

  5. New Algorithm Efficiently Diagnoses Shale Fracture Results From Fiber-Optic Data 11/23/2021

    Millions of barrels of oil are produced daily from U.S. shale reservoirs. Yet this quantity is small in comparison to the actual amount of oil locked away in these subsurface rocks. The oil and gas industry has put fiber-optic sensing cables downhole to better understand hydraulic fracture results and why stimulation and production processes don’t free the trapped oil at expected rates.
