| Dear Sir or Madam, |
|
| A group of researchers from Bosch took first place in the Berthold Leibinger Innovation Prize. Their work in the field of ultrashort pulse laser technology will revolutionize the area of industrial micro-milling. The tiniest structures can now be created quickly and precisely in almost all materials. With its new laser light tool Bosch is already producing the next generation of highly accurate exhaust gas sensors.
Once again it has been shown how a high-tech sector depends on the cooperation between universities, institutions and the industry. Germany will only be able to defend its leading position in the international arena when basic scientific research is quickly implemented in industrial serial production.
Next year, LASER World of PHOTONICS 2009 again offers a unique contact platform in this field. Mark the date in your calendar: June 15 – 18, Neue Messe München.
Yours,
Claudia Sixl
Exhibition Director LASER World of PHOTONICS |

Laser creates safety for high-speed trains
In collaboration with the Polish company Graw, LAP GmbH has developed a new system for the inspection of wheels, wheel sets and the running gear of track vehicles. This development increases safety in rail traffic. The system has been in operation since early 2007 at PKP Intercity in Warsaw and is now sold in Germany by Lüneburg-based LAP GmbH Laser Applikationen.

Sharper Jupiter images from next-generation adaptive optics
A two-hour observation of Jupiter using an improved technique to remove atmospheric blur has produced the sharpest whole-planet picture ever taken from the ground, according to astronomers from the University of California, Berkeley, and the European Southern Observatory (ESO).

First-ever optical inline inspection of transparent tubing
For the manufacture of medical technology products, Pixargus presents its new ProfilControl 5-Medictube inline inspection system. It is the first system to enable optical inline inspection of transparent tubing. As defects, such as inclusions or inhomogeneities, are detected already during the production process, overall manufacturing becomes much more efficient.

Terahertz method – a technology with a lot of potential for the future
Terahertz (THz) technology has become an innovative and fast growing field of research over the last few years. Its potentials are becoming increasingly obvious in the areas of food control and security technology. Imaging terahertz processes are the main focus of interest in the above areas.
Large scale ultrashort impulse laser technology acknowledged
Since 2000, every two years scientists and developers who take new paths in terms of applications for laser light are acknowledged and supported with the Innovation Prize awarded by the Berthold Leibinger Foundation. This year on September 15, 2008 four prizes worth 40,000 euros were awarded in the area of ultrashort impulse laser technology, excimer lasers, new laser sensors and silicon photonics.
Lasers measure speed and location
The research group of Professor Jürgen Czarske and his associates Dr. Lars Büttner and Dr. Thorsten Pfister at Dresden University of Technology was awarded 3rd prize by the Bertold Leibinger Foundation for the Laser Doppler Distance sensor (LDD) that it developed.
