Over more than a half century, the pace of innovation in electronic communication and computing has consistently increased, giving rise to progressively smaller silicon microchips with enhanced processing power. This achievement is attributed to the exponential growth in the density of integrated circuit (IC) transistors, a development predicted by Intel co-founder Gordon Moore in 1965 and commonly called Moore's Law. However, there are inherent limits to reducing the physical feature size of silicon structures before quantum effects start influencing their functionality.

The invention of lasers has enabled the widespread use of Raman spectroscopy in scientific laboratories, and recently Raman spectroscopy has been applied in industrial environments as well. Based on Ibsen Photonics' experience as an OEM supplier of Raman spectrometers for various applications, this article reviews key concerns that must be addressed when designing a Raman spectrometer for industrial applications.

The field of quantum optics is undergoing massive growth, which is enabling a host of new applications within the field. The quantum nature of light allows us to push the limits of various techniques including, but not limited to, spectroscopy, interferometry, sensing and imaging. At the heart of these is a need for a reliable source of entangled photons. The quantum revolution is underpinned by ultrashort pulse duration lasers, and especially fiber lasers. Ultrafast fiber lasers provide reliable ultrashort pulse durations at an unprecedented price point.

Among the most significant technological challenges associated with augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) glasses is the production of optical waveguide combiners. For both technologies, surface relief gratings (SRG) are used as the in-couplers and out-couplers of the light into the near-eye displays. This article shows the manufacture of slanted SRGs using ion beam processing as a crucial component of the waveguide.
