Thorlabs, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of photonics and innovative optical instruments and components, praised the unique properties of the innovative thermoelectric sensor TESS created in Latvia and signed an agreement on its licensing and technology transfer, the Institute of Solid State Physics (LU CFI) informed the The Postedia portal representatives.
A team of Latvian scientists has created a high-speed electromagnetic radiation sensor TESS, which can be used in laser technology, especially when it is necessary to perform maneuvers with precise laser pulse power, such as in medicine, also in laser welding and engraving.
Current technology allows the average power of the laser beam to be measured over a period of time, which may not be sufficient for fine operations or engraving / lithography.
