The Sauer Laboratory at the University of Würzburg implements Re-scan Confocal Microscopy with a new turnkey system from Confocal.nl.

Choosing the right OTDR (Optical Time Domain Reflectometer)

Learn key info on OTDRs and guidance to newcomers in the telecoms fibre optic market for selecting an OTDR appropriate to their testing needs.

The Rise of Tier 2 Testing

Unprecedented demand for more bandwidth, faster network speeds, lower latency, and improved data reliability and security all contribute to the increasing need for better network visibility

3D Mapping of Neural Circuits In Vivo Opens the Window on Neurological Disease

Modifications with SLMs to existing two-photon microscopes can provide noninvasive probes deep within the cortex.

Inexpensive Methods to Measure the Performance Characteristics of a Linear Motion Device

Any object in space has 6 degrees of freedom: linear motion along X, Y, and Z axes, and rotation about each of those axes.

Actuator Characterisation

Covers Zaber positioning devices models T-NAXX, T-LAXX, T-LSXX, T-MMXX, and T-NMXX

Simplifying Control Protocols

One of the core elements of a motion control device is the way that you interact with it. This is most apparent when sending commands to a controller and reading the responses that it returns.

Multi-modal characterization of nanogram amounts of a photosensitive polymer

Here, we demonstrate multi-modal approach of simultaneous characterization of poly(vinyl cinnamate) (PVCN) using a microcantilever sensor.

Application of External-Cavity Quantum Cascade Infrared Lasers to Nanosecond Time-Resolved Infrared Spectroscopy of Condensed-Phase Samples Following Pulse Radiolysis

The development of flash photolysis in the late 1940s by Norrish and Porter revolutionized the application of fast transient spectroscopic measurements.
