If light is strongly concentrated in time and space, resulting in extreme photon densities, it can enable interaction with all conceivable materials. By using these ultrashort laser foci, even ...

LASYS 2012: The latest generation of laser processing machinery – Motion systems increase productivity – Ultrashort-pulse laser processes new material. “Whether in the manufacture of medical ...

Lasers that emit extremely short light pulses are highly precise and are used in manufacturing, medical applications, and research. The problem: efficient short-pulse lasers require a lot of space and ...

The U.S. Army is issuing the call to develop an ultrashort pulse laser. The laser is designed to unleash “enormous power” in a fraction of the time a regular laser weapon lasts. The weapon should have ...

Researchers in Germany have revealed that laser technology is entering a new era in ...

Ultrashort laser pulses - that are shorter than a millionth of a millionth of a second -have transformed fundamental science, engineering and medicine. Despite this, their ultrashort duration has made ...

Laser technology is breaking into new dimensions: ultrashort-pulse and continuous-wave lasers with average powers in the multi-kilowatt range promise to boost efficiency for mater ...

The University of Michigan has officially begun commissioning experiments to make the Zetawatt-Equivalent Ultrashort pulse laser System (ZEUS) fully operational. Researchers are preparing to use the ...

Physicists have developed a new method for producing plasma, enabling them to deal with some of the problems that stand in the way of this extremely difficult process. Physicists at the University of ...
