Lasers have widespread applications as a light source in a variety of fields, including manufacturing, medicine, high-speed communications, electronics, and scientific research.

Scientists can now snap ultra-powerful laser pulses in one shot. RAVEN reveals distortions instantly, unlocking breakthroughs ...

Scientists at the University of Oxford have unveiled a pioneering method for capturing the full structure of ultra-intense ...

The word laser usually conjures up an image of a strongly concentrated and continuous light beam. Lasers that produce such light are, in fact, very common and useful. However, science and industry ...

This article explores the latest advancements in ultrafast laser nanofabrication, a critical field driving miniaturization in ...

My first thought was to modulate a generic 650nm laser diode at a comparatively high frequency and make it a pulse-modulated laser transmitter. Also, employ a suitable laser receiver (capable of ...

A groundbreaking achievement in particle physics has been made at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in Menlo Park, ...

The beam isn’t just powerful—it’s quite large. At its biggest, the laser pulse is one foot (0.3 meters) across and several feet long, according to the Michigan release.

Solving the problems led to new insights that made short pulsed lasers, which are also popular in industrial applications, more reliable. “The combination of even higher power and pulse rates of 5.5 ...

Try to fathom the power of 1 million nuclear power plants.Now, imagine there is a way to pack the equivalent of that into the pulse of a laser beam—even if it’s only for one quadrillionth of a ...

The electrons started gaining speed behind the laser pulse in a phenomenon known as wakefield acceleration. Because light moves slower in plasma, the electrons can catch up to the laser beam.

Advanced ultrafast laser techniques achieve sub-10nm nanofabrication for semiconductors. Comprehensive review of near-field ...
