Summary

Optical injection locking greatly enhances multimode vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (MM-VCSEL) transmission distance over standard single-mode fiber. Distances up to 90 km at 10 Gb/s were achieved using frequency chirp inversion and mode suppression.

Confocal Fluorescence Microscopy

Confocal microscopy is an advanced microscopic technique. The prime advantage of the confocal microscope over other microscopy techniques is its ability to block the out-of-focus light from the illuminated samples using pinholes. It is widely used with fluorescence optics to obtain high-resolution, sharp contrast images. Unlike optical microscopes, confocal microscopes use a focused beam of light laser to scan the entire sample surface at different z-planes. These microscopes are, therefore,...
