By shining a focused laser beam onto a sample of material, a team at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) and ETH Zürich showed ...

The devices and tools used in medicine are becoming smaller. They have greater functionality and are expected to last longer than earlier devices. Design, manufacturing, and packaging the devices and ...

Partnership of Fraunhofer IWS and Israeli firms Civan Lasers and A. Kotliar Laser Welding Solutions for additive manufacturing apps. IWS scientists are testing the Dynamic Beam laser for industrial ...

When the green laser encounters atoms along its path through the crystal, it gives the electrons in those atoms a bit of extra energy. In their high-energy state, those electrons can absorb blue light ...

Laser engraving uses a powerful beam of light to create detailed designs on various materials. The laser works by vaporizing the surface layer, leaving behind precise and lasting marks or etchings.

Semiconductors are an integral part of the inner workings of medical devices, assisting in the conductivity between a non-conductor and a conductor to control electricity flow. In turn, the assembly ...

Low-powered sky lasers could help redirect and reduce the intensity of lightning strikes. Previous research involved higher-powered lasers, but this is a gentler, different mechanic. The technology ...

A quantum trick based on interferometric measurements allows a team of researchers at LMU to detect even the smallest ...
