Allosteric NAMPT Activators for Metabolic and Neurological Disorders
This invention relates to a novel method of increasing the catalytic activity of the enzyme, nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), which in turn increases the production of nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) that is converted to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). This process to increase supply of NAD in the body is accomplished using...

Distributed Feedback Fiber Laser Pumped by Multimode Diode Lasers
Researchers at the University of Arizona College of Optical Sciences and Canada's Carleton University recently succeeded in fabricating high reflectivity (>99%) Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs) into phosphate glass fibers using UV light and a phase mask technique. With this new manufacturing technique, fiber lasers can be created as single monolithic...

All-Fiber Multicore Fiber Laser Devices
Researchers at the University of Arizona have developed a compact, power-scalable, alignment-free fiber laser that takes a new approach to stabilizing phase-locked operation of multi-core fiber lasers by completely removing all free space optical components. This high-brightness, all-fiber laser package uses passive optical fiber spliced at both ends...
