Researchers at ETH Zurich have developed a laser oscillator that produces the most powerful ultrashort laser pulses ever.

Using precision laser measurements, scientists have quantified the nuclear radii of silicon isotopes to improve nuclear ...

LCLS-II-HE is the second upgrade in as many years for a laser beam in Menlo Park, California, that reveals some of nature's ...

Use a "buddy system" or equivalent safety measure. Employ the use of laser barriers and/or blocks, as feasible. Employ the use of temporary beam attenuators, as feasible. Ensure proper restoration of ...

To achieve this reflection, thin semiconductor films are deposited on top of one another, and the laser beam is further defined by an etched channel through this stack. The thickness and ...

Researchers from ETH Zurich have developed a laser that produces the strongest ultra-short pulses to date, setting a new ...

A new technique uses glowing molecules, laser light and microscopes to measure distances as minuscule as 0.1 nanometres – the ...

In the new study, scientists took a microsphere (a tiny ball) of silicon oxide (SiO 2) and suspended it using beams of light. This vibrated the ball, giving it an internal sound like a very ...

Schematic of a plasma wakefield accelerator using optical laser beams and electron driver ... compact accelerators and in high-energy physics research. Novel complementary accelerator technologies ...

Here, a laser beam impinges on a target material and ablates material that is deposited as a ... This is a very exciting time for the HTS field, he tells Physics World. “We have a very important niche ...

Lacking a vault door to drill, they used a powerful laser, delidding the IC and pulsing different areas of it with the beam. How do you know when exactly to pulse? For that, they took power ...

Most of the current atom interferometers are large instruments, occupying buildings and requiring towers that can reach tens ...
