noise and high-power stability performance over the laser’s lifetime. It is ideal for biomedical imaging and metrology applications where repeatable performance and low signal-to-noise ratio are required. Unlike traditional open-loop laser
modulation, the iFLEX CLM maintains consistent output during both continuous- wave and modulated operation. The CLM feature enables analogue, digital and dual-mode modulation for reliable stability from 0.1 per cent to 100 per cent power
Prism Award finalists
Disruptive technology for assessing chemical composition in real time, a lidar system for self-driving vehicles, and a smartphone- add-on sensor for non- contact blood pressure and other healthcare tests are among the finalists for the 2018 Prism Awards for Photonics Innovation competition. The annual event, which
is celebrating its 10th year in 2018, recognises innovative product inventions within the optics and photonics field. Winners will be announced on 31 January at a gala banquet during Photonics West, boosting visibility, recognition, and brand equity for companies bringing innovative products to the market. ‘Ten years in, the Prism
Awards are casting an even wider light on the photonics industry. Each year, categories for the awards are driven by the innovations entered, providing direct insight into thriving and emerging “hot” markets,’ said SPIE CEO Eugene Arthurs. ‘New this year are categories for inventions in environmental monitoring and for illumination and light sources – very timely as the world continues to work toward more sustainable energy sources and devices.’
and maximum repeatability for ultra-stable performance. IFLEX lasers with CLM are also ultra-low noise in terms of RMS, RIN and periodic noise. They offer precision adjustment at all output power levels for applications where a stable, ultra-low noise source will improve signal-to-noise ratio and data consistency over time.
