The company is truly high-tech, making complex laser machines that cut silicon and wafers for chipmakers and photonics companies. |
It aims to develop technologies across a wide range of disciplines including superconductivity, nanotechnology, data storage, photonics and power electronics. |
Much of our electronics could soon be replaced by photonics, in which beams of light flitting through microscopic channels on a silicon chip replace electrons in wires. |
Spie, of course, is deeply involved in metrology in virtually any branch of optics or photonics you might name. |
Newport makes photonics instrumentation, motion control, and automation equipment. |
The recent advances in silicon photonics make it possible to integrate the entire digitizer on a silicon chip, leading to a compact and low-cost solution. |
