Step 1: Lasers for Optogenetics & Neuroscience

Optogenetics is a booming multidisciplinary bioengineering technology. It has the characteristic of high spatial-temporal resolution and cell-type specific. It overcomes the disadvantages of traditional methods of the activity control for the cell and organism, and also provides a revolutionary method for the research of neuroscience. The research fields include fundamental research of neural circuit, study and memory research, habituation research, dyskinesia, sleep disorders, parkinsonism, depressive disorder, anxiety disorder etc., and many classic laboratory animal germ line (drosophila melanogaster, nemathelminth, mice, Marmoset, and machin etc.).

Neuroscience is the scientific study of the nervous system. It is currently an interdisciplinary science that collaborates with other fields such as chemistry, computer science, engineering, linguistics, mathematics, medicine, genetics, and allied disciplines including philosophy, physics, and psychology. It also exerts influence on other fields, such as neuroinduction and neurology. The scope of neuroscience has broadened to include different approaches used to study the molecular, cellular, developmental, structural, functional, evolutionary, computational, and medical aspects of the nervous system.

Step 2: Lasers for Particle Image Velocimetry

Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) achieved significant development compared with traditional flowing display technology by using a transient, multi-point, non-contact hydrodynamic speed method. PIV overcome the single point measurement limitations of traditional means for that PIV can record a great deal of velocity distribution of different space at the same transient state, also provide customers affluent spatial structure and flowing characteristics about the flow field. PIV can be widely used in the wind tunnel flow field measurements, turbulent flow field measurements, particle flow studies, environmental studies, biomedical research and other fields.

CNI products have been exported to more than one hundred countries and regions and CNI brand also received a high market reputation in the international community. CNI can provide different laser source for PIV, also the accessories used for PIV are available for a total system from customers.

Step 3: Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) consists of confocal microscopy, laser and data acquisition system. It is a combination of the optical microscope, the modern laser technology, Raman detection technology, scanning control technology, computer image processing technique and fluorescence labeling technique. Its application and research field include the observation of life living cell structure and specific molecular, Ion biological changes, pharmacology, genetics, spectroscopy and related subjects.

Step 4: Lasers for Holography

Holography is divided into two processes which are recording and reproduction,the interference fringes is generated on the holographic plate through the superposition between the reference light and the reflected light during the recording. Then, after the holographic plate is processed in the darkroom, an image exactly same to the original object will be reproduced from the interference pattern on the photosensitive sheet by diffraction. Compared with ordinary photographic, Holography not only records the amplitude of light field of the object, but also records the relative phase of the reflected light waves. Holography is widely used in holographic microscopy, holographic security, data storage, deformation measurement, holographic interferometry and etc.

Laser communication is wireless connections through the atmosphere. It is now able to send information at data rates up to several Gbps and at a distance of thousands of kilometers apart.

The information is sent to the light modulator which is connected with laser. The modulator processes the information on a laser by adjusting amplitude, frequency or phase. Then the information is transmitted by optical antenna. At the receiving end, the oscillator and signal are mixed and then transformed into the original information by the photoelectric balance detector and loop filter, after amplification and demodulation.

Laser communication has the advantages of small transmission loss, long transmission distance, high communication quality, large communication capacity, strong confidentiality and light structure. It is mainly used for ground communication, global communication and interstellar communication.

Laser imaging: Illuminate the target with the three frequency shift laser beam to produce the moving interference fringes on the surface, then receive the echo with energy detector and demodulate echo to get the the Fourier amplitude and phase spectrum of target on the surface. Finally, eliminate the atmospheric jitter by closure phase and reconstruct the target image by the Fourier inversion.Our precision manufactured lasers and laser systems deliver the highest possible laser graphic imaging performance on a wide variety of materials, including marble, wood, glass, plastics, painted metals, textiles, anodized aluminum and more. The imaging system has the advantages of high resolution and ultra long range imaging. It can also overcome the atmospheric turbulence.

Step 6: LIDAR - Light Detecting and Ranging

Lidar is a radar system which consists of laser emitting device, telescope collection device and signal analyzing device. As one of the active remote sensing technologies, lidar has been applied in many areas such as terrestrial vegetation monitoring, atmospheric laser transmission, global climate prediction and monitoring of the marine environment.
