Congratulations to Moti Segev, Alex Dikopoltsev and Eran Lustig on winning the Hershel Rich Innovation Award 2022
for "inventions, discoveries and developments, computer software or publications with potential for business realization".
The findings were published online by Science on September 2021 and were selected as one of the 10 finalists for the 2021 Physics World Breakthrough of the Year.
Their groundbreaking research has demonstrated that it is in fact theoretically and experimentally possible to combine VCSELs to achieve a more robust and highly efficient laser. As such, the results of the study pave the way towards applications of numerous future technologies such as medical devices, communications, and a variety of real-world applications.
