PhD thesis investigated application of a special white-light laser for semiconductor industry and microbiology
14-Feb-2022
A new high-performance white-light laser is expected to speed up quality control in the semiconductor industry and provide closer monitoring of toxicity tests in microbiology. In one step, this laser enables the two-sided characterization of surfaces and can be integrated into production chains. ...
Innovative sensing technique could improve greenhouse gas analysis
12-Oct-2018
An international team of researchers has used an unconventional imaging technique known as ghost imaging to make spectroscopic measurements of a gas molecule. The new approach by scientists at Tampere University of Technology in Finland, the University of Eastern Finland and the University of ...
