Len Crane – Senior Technologist – discusses power inductors and how predicting performance gets better with Coilcraft MAGPro tools. He covers, for example, making inductors smaller and more compatible with surrounding components, making solutions better and smaller. Thank you to Len for his time. Video: Priya Atwal, emap
A new technique, called advanced dual-chirped optical parametric amplification, has increased the energy of single-cycle laser pulses by a factor of 50. The technique uses two crystals (shown as clear cubes), which amplify complementary regions of the spectrum.
