Laser-based manufacturing and materials processing technology has proven to be a well-established and cutting-edge technology ...

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 ...

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 ...

Scientists working on laser application at the RIKEN Center for Advanced Photonics (RAP) have demonstrated that GHz burst mode femtosecond laser pulses can create unique two-dimensional (2D) ...

Laser ablation is a process that uses high-energy laser pulses to precisely remove or vaporize materials from a solid surface. When the laser beam focuses on the target material, it absorbs the laser ...

In a review published in Advanced Materials ("Ultrafast Laser Processing of 2D Materials: Novel Routes to Advanced Devices"), researchers led by Prof. Mika Pettersson from the University of Jyväskylä ...

Tools made of hard materials and ceramics such as tungsten carbide are particularly wear-resistant. However, the tools used to manufacture them wear out all the faster – unless the tool is laser light ...

Stanford spin-out says it can halve the cost of semiconductor wafers on which high-efficiency power electronics are made. Halo Industries, a California-based startup company with a novel, laser-based, ...
