Femtosecond laser based micro/nano processing involves studies of numerous aspects: fundamentals and unique phenomena of fs-laser pluses and matter interactions, pulse-shaping and high throughput ...

Scientists have finally figured out how mysterious “breather” laser pulses work, solving a puzzle that has frustrated laser ...

Last year marked the 270th anniversary of Benjamin Franklin’s lightning rod — but it’s more than a relic of history. The Franklin rod remains in use today because the simple design exploits some ...

Supercontinuum (SC) white light (the spectrum stretching from the near ultraviolet to the infrared wavelengths) has advanced ultrafast laser spectroscopy in condensed matter science, biology, physics ...

Tailored profiles: The working principle of the new metalaser. The designed geometric phase profile is introduced to the metasurface by rotating the hole in each silicon nitride nanodisk. Then the ...

The Mamyshev oscillator (MO) is a type of fiber laser capable of producing high-energy laser pulses at a tunable repetition rate. It is a mode-locked laser which uses light travelling within a ...

While the world continues to fixate on AI, there are still plenty of high performance computing workloads that need doing and a speedup to any one part can have a big impact, whether it be ...

From filming star-like plasma in trillionths of a second to testing a record-breaking lithium thruster and advancing 300kW-class missile defense lasers, researchers and engineers marked major leaps in ...

For years, robotic laser-arc hybrid welding in narrow gaps has been a bottleneck for high-efficiency fabrication, limited by the difficulty of maintaining stability in tight tolerances. However, ...
