Ultrashort mid-infrared (mid-IR) laser pulses are essential for applications such as molecular spectroscopy, nonlinear ...

By integrating a holmium-doped ZBLAN photonic crystal fiber within a nonlinear optical loop mirror, the approach achieves high compression efficiency with minimal pedestal energy, offering a ...

The new method, which uses quantum dots, performs as well as or better than current infrared light sources while being much simpler to make. The scientists hope the breakthrough could lead to cheaper ...

Awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry, quantum dots have a wide variety of applications ranging from displays and LED lights to chemical reaction catalysis and bioimaging. These semiconductor ...

The 2060 NIR Analyzer employs NIR spectroscopy to monitor wheat flour for potato starch, ensuring high-quality food products ...

The study was conducted under the project New approaches to deciphering the structure and chemical properties of graphene oxide, supported by a grant from the Russian Science Foundation. Graphene ...

NIR spectroscopy concerns the analysis of how NIR light and matter interact. In spectroscopic analysis, light is determined by the wavelength, not by the applied energy. The wavelength of light is ...

As great as cameras that operate in the visual light spectrum are, they omit a lot of the information that can be gleaned from other wavelengths. There is also the minor issue that visibility is often ...
