Laser technology from Osram transforms smartphones into beamers. Green lasers for projector applications need to have not only outstanding beam characteristics but also a high optical performance in order to deliver sharp and bright images. Although a projector also needs red and blue...

Buildlog.Net Blog published a new project. It's an ESP32 Controller board used to control X/Y and Z axis of Pen or Laser engraving machines. I have done several pen and laser machines lately, so I decided to create a custom PCB for Grbl_ESP32 for these types of machines. This is a...

Cellphone chargers have been in existence for years and have grown from one stage to another. It started with the mobile phone traditional charger which had a USB interface, a DC converter, and a charging plug and now has expanded to a close-range inductive wireless charging. The commonly...

Researchers from the MESA+ research institute at University of Twente have collaborated together with the provider company of the customized microsystem solutions "LioniX International" to achieve the lowest bandwidth tunable diode laser on a chip. The newly-developed laser operates...

Lasers are everywhere these days: at the checkout in the supermarket, in the CD player in the lounge – and quantum researchers need them to test qubits in the (future) quantum computers. For most applications, today's large, inefficient lasers are a perfectly adequate solution, but...

Our 'common sense' would say that when an object moves from point A to point B it necessarily has to also move through all the points between A and B. This is, however, not true for electrons in the quantum world, where these intuitive truths are not valid. Electrons can, for...

A laser scanning microscope (LSM) is an optical imaging technique for increasing optical resolution and contrast of micrographs. It permits a wide range of qualitative and quantitative measurements on difficult samples, including topography mapping, extended depth of focus, and 3D...
