WL-SIQW high efficiency infrared light source
Würth Elektronik has complemented its infrared product range with the new WL-SIQW SMT Infrared QFN LED Waterclear product series. The LEDs in Quad Flat No Leads (QFN) format are available in 2720, 3535 and 3737 packages with different radiant intensities from 125 to 800 mW/sr and in 90°, 120° or 150° beam angles.
LiDAR systems based on integrated optical phased arrays
Taking a critical step toward developing LiDAR systems for widespread commercial applications, CEA-Leti has developed genetic algorithms to calibrate high-channel-count optical phased arrays (OPAs), as well as an advanced measurement setup enabling wafer-scale OPA characterisation.
Trichroid thin film polarisers for custom coatings
LASER COMPONENTS began production of optical coatings in 1986. Since production began, the company has been committed to consistency, quality and constant development. LASER COMPONENTS now has E-beam, IAD and IBS technology and is well equipped for challenging custom coating designs tailored to specific applications.
Parabolic mirrors assist accurate 3D flight tracking
Optical Surfaces has been selected by the Optical Engineering Group at the University of Warwick (UK) School of Engineering to supply key focusing optics to enable accurate 3D flight tracking and analysis of mosquito flight behaviour.
FLEXPOINT mounts with an integrated heat sink
With their fundamentally redesigned mounts, the FLEXPOINT modules from LASER COMPONENTS can be mounted in such a way that the beam does not deviate in the slightest from the desired position. The two standard versions for module diameters of 11.5 and 19mm are supplemented by a precision mount for 19mm modules.
NIR-MX800-LN intensity modulator series
LASER COMPONENTS has introduced the NIR-MX800-LN series intensity modulators from iXBlue, especially designed to operate in the 800nm wavelength band. They are available with modulation bandwidth at 10GHz and 20GHz.
High frame rate OLED DDIC for 5G smartphones
Magnachip Semiconductor has announced that it has commenced full-scale mass production of its first 120Hz High Frame Rate (HFR) OLED display driver IC (DDIC) for QHD flexible displays, following the successful product release and initial production in 2020.
Silicon pin photodiode enhances bio sensor performance
Vishay Intertechnology has broadened its optoelectronics portfolio with the introduction of a new high speed silicon PIN photodiode with enhanced sensitivity to visible and infrared light.
3G-SDI and analogue YPbPr interface for block cameras
AIVION has announced the TL7055, a small form factor 3G-SDI/HD-SDI plus analogue YPbPr output video transmitter for zoom block cameras with an industry-standard LVDS interface. The Interface Board TL7055 can be mounted on the back of the camera.
Lenses & optical systems for challenging environments
Producing a lens or optical system for challenging environments, such as aerospace, industrial or military use requires careful consideration of its resistance to vibration, shock, temperature and water ingress in addition to ensuring high reliability and top performance.
