Editorial submissionsGot an announcement to make? Send me your ideas.

New product announcementsSimilarly, I am keen to receive press releases detailing new products. Each one should be around 250 words and describe your product’s specifications and applications. You should supply a high resolution JPEG, or flash file of your product. There is no charge but inclusion of your product cannot be guaranteed.

Registered users can also log in to post their press and product releases.

Since the first development of white

OLEDs in the 1990s, numerous efforts

have been made to achieve a balanced

white spectrum and high luminous

efficacy at a practical luminance level.

However, the external quantum efficiency

(EQE) for white OLEDs without additional

outcoupling techniques typically only

reaches 20 to 40 percent today.

About 20 percent of the photons

generated in conventional OLEDs remain

trapped in the glass layer of these devices.

The reason for this is the total internal

reflection of the particles at the interface

between glass and air. Further photons are

waveguided in the organic layers, while

others get ultimately lost at the interface

to the top metal electrode.

Researchers at TU Dresden achieve external quantum efficiency of 76.3% with scalable, lithography-free method.

Numerous approaches have been

investigated to extract the trapped

photons from OLEDs. Now, an international

research team led by Dr. Simone Lenk

and Prof. Sebastian Reineke from the TU

Dresden, Germany, have developed a new

method for freeing the photons. Their work

is described in Nature Communications.

The physicists have introduced a

“straightforward, scalable and notably

lithography-free method for the

generation of controllable nanostructures

with directional randomness and

dimensional order, significantly boosting

the efficiency of white OLEDs.” The

nanostructures are instead produced by

reactive ion etching. This, say the team,

has the advantage that the topography

of the nanostructures can be specifically

controlled by adjusting the process

parameters.

In order to understand the results

obtained, the scientists have developed

an optical model that can be used to

explain the increased efficiency of OLEDs.

By integrating these nanostructures

into white OLEDs, an external quantum

efficiency of up to 76.3% can be achieved.

‘Further applications’For Dr. Simone Lenk, the new method

opens up numerous new avenues; she

commented, “We had been looking

for a way to specifically manipulate

nanostructures for a long time. With

reactive ion etching, we have found a cost-

effective process that can be used for large

surfaces and is also suitable for industrial

use.”

Over the past three decades, organic

light-emitting diodes have been steadily

conquering the electronics market, say

the Dresden scientists: “from OLED mobile

phone displays to roll-out television

screens, the range of applications is

growing”.

Since light-emitting diodes only produce

monochrome light, manufacturers typically

employ various additive color-mixing

processes to produce white light.

A key focus of OLED research is on

improving the performance of white

OLEDs for lighting elements such as ceiling

or car interior lighting; such components

are subject to much stricter requirements

in terms of stability, angular emission and

power efficiency.

optics.org interviewed Dr Lenk about

her group’s work and its potential for

commercialization.

What are the factors limiting the efficiency of conventional white OLEDs?

“The factors limiting the efficiency of

white OLEDs are electrical efficiency (ratio

of generated excitons to the number of

injected electrons); the radiative efficiency

of the emitters (ratio of generated photons

to the number of generated excitons);

and the outcoupling efficiency (ratio

of outcoupled photons to generated

photons). Typical efficiencies for white

OLEDs are in the range between 10 and

25%.”

How does your approach improve this; and by what factor?

“Our approach is the implementation

of a quasi-periodic nanostructure

working as an internal scattering layer

to outcouple trapped photons. The

nanostructures are produced by reactive

ion etching. The advantage lies in the

fact that the periodicity and height of

the nanostructures can be completely

adjusted via the process parameters and

that thus an optimal outcoupling structure

for white OLEDs can be achieved. Using

this nanostructure as internal outcoupling

structure and additionally a glass half

sphere for external light outcoupling, we

can enhance the efficiency by a factor of

3.4.”

Could commercially-produced OLEDs could be significantly more efficient in mass production by using your approach?

“I assume yes – reactive ion etching

is comparitively cheap and the

nanostructures could be easily adopted for

mass production.”

The Jenoptik Light & Optics team in Jupiter, FL have been developing three types of mission critical lenses for use with the Mars Rover’s engineering cameras. Navigation lenses will capture the first live video footage from the mission as the rover explores the surface of Mars, crucially important when the rover drives autonomously. Hazard avoidance lenses will provide images that will help the rover identify obstacles and allow NASA engineers to see the movement of the robotic arm during sample collection. Finally, a cache lens will verify that a

When NASA launches the Mars 2020 mission the first images back to Earth in February of 2021 will be seen through lenses designed and engineered by Jenoptik.

First images from Mars will be seen through Jenoptik lenses

complete collection of the rock and soil samples have been achieved. Due to the cache lens’ proximity to the samples collected, to avoid contamination, the cleanliness requirements are extremely challenging.

All three lens types were built in a Jenoptik class 5 clean room with state-of-the-art filtration technology for high-precision optical assemblies. Custom test equipment was developed at Jenoptik to measure the optical performance during the demanding temperature extremes to withstand the conditions on Mars. Jenoptik

performed several environmental tests in vacuum and over a wide temperature range with the lowest temperature being -135°C.

“Jenoptik is accustomed to demanding applications requiring expertise in the design, manufacture, and testing of complex optical assemblies in the fields of semiconductor, medical devices and defense industries”, said Jay Kumler, President of Jenoptik Optical Systems in North America. “We are very proud of the technical challenges and rigorous testing we have overcome which has really benefited the entire company, and we are honored to be a part of the monumental mission to Mars.”

Biophotonics revenues reboundNew industry data released this week by SPIE highlights the continuing strength of the biophotonics (* see page 18) marketplace as it recovers from a significant revenue dip in 2015. Industry revenues for 2018 grew to a global total of $121 billion, a compound an-nual growth (CAGR) of 16% since 2015 [see chart1]. Factors driving this growth include emerging technologies – such as wearables, novel imaging techniques, and the advent of nanotechnology in biophotonics—and socie-tal factors including the aging of the world’s population, which is boosting demand for innovative healthcare solutions.

At the Biophotonics Executive Forum during Photonics West 2017, we noted that

a combination of pricing pressure and currency effects had caused a global revenue contraction across many of the top public healthcare companies during 2015: At No-vartis, for instance, unfavorable currency movement negatively impacted revenues by about 9% and at Johnson and Johnson in-ternational sales fell about 13% because of a massive currency drag. As a result of the contraction, total photonics revenues report-ed in US$ for this segment in 2015 fell to $77 billion.

Since then however, currency markets have stabilized somewhat, and the general

economic climate has remained positive, with the result that biophotonics-related market activity has grown steadily. In-dustry examples include global healthcare leader Abbott – which announced organ-ic year-over-year revenue growth of 7.3%

The world’s largest meeting for biomedical optics opens a new decade of developments in light-based biomedical technologies.Saturday night’s BiOS Hot Topics session will be the first with new BiOS symposium co-chairs, Jennifer Barton of University of Arizona, and Wolfgang Drexler of the Medical University of Vienna. Last year, both Rox An-derson and James Fujimoto retired as BiOS co-chairs after having served 15 years in their roles. At the time, Fujimoto noted, “We know the conference will be in good hands.”

Drexler, with nearly 30 years of experience in optical imaging, is head of the Center for Medical Physics and Biomedical Engineering, a large research center that focuses on the development of cutting-edge technology for translational medical diagnosis and therapy.

Barton is director of the BIO5 Institute, an

interdisciplinary institute that tackles “big issue” problems, such as how to detect cancer earlier, how to feed nine billion people, and how to ensure a health span that matches our lifespan.

“This is the conference in biomedical op-tics,” says Barton. “SPIE has done an amazing job bringing this community together and growing this conference. I feel like I’ve grown up with it, so it’s really exciting to have an opportunity to lead it.”

Eric Betzig has not been resting on his laureate“If you want to understand any dynamic system, no matter how good your infor-mation is about its components, no matter how good the static images of the compo-nents, it’s not enough to understand that system,” noted Eric Betzig at the BiOS Ple-nary Session on Sunday, where he talked about “the secret life of cells” and his work involved in discovering that secret life.

To help explain the issue, Betzig discussed earlier microscopy tools and showed a slide of a BMW engine with all

its parts laid out. “If I had no prior knowl-edge of how combustion works, or how the gears or the crankshaft works, it would be damned difficult for me to reverse en-gineer that,” he said. “Many of the tools I just described don’t give a comprehension of all of the parts, so you’re missing many of the parts. If you’re doing biochemistry over express, now you have three crank-shafts and 18 pistons and you’re wonder-ing how that’s going to work. Starting in the 1980s optical microscopy would start

IMEC drives into the futureIMEC, the Leuven, Belgium-based innova-tion hub focused on nanoelectronics and digital tech, on Monday, oversaw ITF Pho-tonics 2020, in which speakers discussed the versatility and potential of silicon photonics technology. While silicon photonics is a main way to scale optical interconnects to meet the growing demands of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, telecom and datacom, the technology has applications in many other areas, from healthcare to agriculture and food analysis.

“We position ourselves somewhere in be-tween the academic world and the industry,” said Nora Maene, a business development manager. Its facilities provide both breadth

and depth in expertise, as well as infra-structure, which includes two clean rooms and multiple labs. It works with hundreds of partners around the world, forming an R&D ecosystem, Maene added. “It’s really more of a cooperative approach where our partners learn from us.”

“IMEC is unique in its approach,” said Brian Sapp, Senior Director of Technical Performance and Partnerships of BRIDG, a non-profit public-private partnership or-ganization in semiconductor R&D, which partnered with IMEC in 2016 to establish a new design center in Florida, dubbed IMEC USA. “They have a broad set of application platforms and expertise, which enables them

to create R&D solutions for all types and sizes of projects.”

Sustainability is good business thanks to cloud, says GoogleIn the next wave, we will do ever more of our “compute” on the network, as the old idea of planned obsolescence gives way to sustain-ability as a “better business model,” predicts a top tech guru.

Trond Wuellner, a group product manag-er at Google, stepped on the stage Monday in

the tech supremo uniform of black Tshirt and jeans. Quickly, he mes-

merized a standing-room only crowd – he loves to speak of “our compute,” a

cool touch – for his presentation “Prod-uct Design for the Next Wave of Computing.”

These are already the days of targeted, spe-cialized computers. “It’s part of matrix mul-tiplication,” he said. “We are in a superstage, having achieved quantum supremacy. And

that says that this system basically works.”Wuellner traced the rise of planned obsoles-

cence in the 1930s with examples from when Pontiacs and Cadillacs stole market share from Henry Ford’s uniform Model T, which soared to sell 17 million cars, costing $575. Computer devices did the same, for decades.

In the old days of “product segmentation,” a 1930 Cadillac would give way to the 1933 models’ new wheels and cute bumpers. That reduced the time of ownership, and, decades on, something similar happened with PCs and the phones in your pocket.

But now, in a time of specialized computers, instead of selling new machines and software, companies will derive revenue from selling

WEDNESDAYWEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2020

Bring your ideas to booth #1827.

From concept to volume production: You can do it all with Optikos.Brainstorm the design of an optical product or take your concept all the way with Optikos. We provide: Feasibility, Breadboard, Design and Development, Alpha/Beta Prototype, Transfer to Manufacturing, Pilot Build, and Volume Production.

Six companies came out on top at the 10th annual Startup Challenge healthcare and deep tech tracks Wednesday.

First place in the healthcare track went to Odin Technologies, LLC for Lumisense – an optics-based, wearable diagnostic de-vice that assesses extremity hemodynamics – allowing caregivers to identify perfusion injuries and complications.

“We’re developing the next generation of intelligent wearable devices to help clini-

cians to identify non-obvious hemorrhage and compartment syndrome in trauma patients,” said Odin founder and CEO Steven Hansen. Through early identification, Lumi-sense allows patients to get the treatment they need sooner; improving outcomes and reducing costs for hospitals.”

Rubitection took second place for the Ru-bitect Assessment System (RAS) – an optical skin health and wellness tool for diagnosis and monitoring with an initial application

for early pressure ulcer (bedsore) pre-vention. RAS uses applied reflectance spectroscopy to identify redness or changes in the coloration of the skin.

“RAS is a technology that’s ad-dressing a global healthcare prob-

lem,” said Rubitection CEO Sanna Gaspard. “It can reliably measure the properties of the skin on all patients independent of skin color, and it can be used easily by an aid or skilled nurse.”

Rachel Kuperman, founder and CEO of Eysz, Inc. came away with third place for her company’s Seizure Monitoring Software. “Detecting and responding to seizures is critical to managing epilepsy. Today, accu-rately detecting seizures outside of a hospi-tal-based setting is like trying to diagnose a fever without a thermometer.” The software being developed at Eysz will analyze passive eye movement data including relative eye position and blink frequency, to measure seizures with loss of consciousness.

PRISM Awards honor innovative companiesAt last night’s gala event, these 12 companies took home a coveted PRISM Award honoring the best in photonics innovation. This year’s winners included the first back-to-back win-ner in CloudMinds, and, for the second year in a row, a former Startup Challenge win-ner turned its large check into a trophy as PhotoniCare took home an award.

Communication: Innolume’s CW Datacom Laser is an enabling component for a new generation of data communication equipment. It will substantially reduce laser

costs and power consumption – saving ener-gy and the environment one laser at a time.

Energy: Prisma Photonics is the first and only company to offer highly effective, high-fidelity monitoring of electrical trans-mission lines based on pre-existing optical communication cables. A single Prisma-Sense system can monitor 100 km of trans-mission lines without the need to install any sensor on the lines or towers.

Healthcare: PhotoniCare’s TOMi Scope uses light to see through the eardrum

and directly visualize fluid in the middle ear for the correct diagnosis and treatment. The TOMi Scope uses a proprietary optical coherence tomography engine that meets a significant clinical need at a price point and ease-of-use that enables it to be leveraged in primary care settings.

Life Sciences: TERA-print’s TERA-Fab E series is the world’s first desktop nanoprinter based on a new, highly scalable and versatile photolithographic technology,
