The Chameleon-like material sensation
Scientists at UC Berkeley have created a Chameleon-like material that can change colour when stretched. The super thin silicon, is marked with patterns of ridges to reflect light in a certain way. As the material is stretched the ridges stretch and reflect a different wavelength of light thus reflect a different colour in the process. […]
3-D X-ray images ‘Giant Virus’
The new developments of a unique X-ray laser has enabled the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory to image an infectious virus intact. Mimivirus, the name of the ‘giant virus’ was imaged and with the ability to reconstruct 3-D structures of live samples, scientists can learn more about the virus’ origins. The experiment involves […]
Focus On Microscopy
Join Gregor Klatt and his colleagues at the Focus on Microscopy in Göttingen, Germany from 29th March until 1st April, 2015. Here we will be exhibiting our continuous wave lasers which are perfectly suited to the application of two-photon microscopy and super-resolution imaging such as STED Microscopy. The conference itself will have a special focus […]
Laser Quantum at Oxford Photonics Day
On Monday 20th April 2015, Laser Quantum has been invited to participate in the Oxford Photonics day. This day aims to consolidate the photonics community in Oxford and enable them to network together and with industry. Laser Quantum’s Justine Bentley will be attending the exhibition and highlighting our wide range of lasers suitable for numerous […]
DPG Spring Meeting in Heidelberg
On 24th-26th March 2015, Gregor Klatt and his colleagues from Laser Quantum will be exhibiting at the DPG Spring meeting in Heidelberg which covers a range of topics including Quantum Optics and Photonics, Molecular Physics and Atomic Physics. Gregor Klatt is keen to meet new people and demonstrate the range of applications for the Laser […]
Atomic Clocks, the potential for exploration of the universe
The most precise clocks in the world have the potential to become more accurate. They work by creating a ‘pendulum’ using stabilised laser light to enable electrons to jump from one obit to another and then fall back down. Researchers from Niels Bohr Institute have developed a noise reduction method to increase the precision of […]
Laser Quantum’s training for Manchester 10K
As part of Laser Quantum’s continuous improvement challenge not only for products and processes but also staff development, we are training to do the Morrison’s Manchester 10K on May 10th. There will be two teams competing internally to achieve the overall best group time; the old dogs verses the young pups. With stiff competition in […]
New OPCPA paper added
Please read the new OPCPA paper from the European Physical Journal. This paper investigates carrier-envelope phase dependent high-order harmonic generation with a high-repetition rate OPCPA-system. We hope it will be of interest for you and you can find it on our OPCPA product page.
DPG Spring Meeting in Berlin
Laser Quantum will be highlighting the new taccor tune at the exhibition during the DPG spring meeting in Berlin, 17-19 March 2015. Gregor Klatt and his colleagues will be happy to answer any questions about any of the Laser Quantum range of lasers and advise on which lasers are suitable for your applications. The conference […]
SU2P exhibition
Join us at SU2P on Monday 23rd and Tuesday 24th March at The University of St Andrews. The SU2P symposium includes a list of exceptional speakers from around the world and we are honoured to be able to exhibit here. Justine Bentley, our UK Sales Manager will be on hand to answer any queries about […]
