Scientists carefully positioned lasers to compress billions of electrons together, creating a beam five times more powerful ...

Unlike traditional fiber lasers that produce static beams, DBL enables real-time beam shape adjustments to suit specific ...

"We have a one-kilometer-long machine, and the laser interacts with the beam in the first 10 meters, so you have to get the ...

Laser beam shaping systems such as nLIGHT offer a step-function in laser productivity over the Gaussian laser shape that is standard across the powder bed fusion (PBF) additive manufacturing ...

The beam launchers are compact, modular and long-term stable and are ideal for launching tailored laser beams to the desired target ... beam expansion, beam shaping for beams with elliptical cross ...

However, we note that by adjusting the beam size directly after the laser source, it is possible to vary the spatial extent of the illumination at the pupil and hence change the lateral size of ...

It requires three laser beams — a pump beam, a probe beam and a Stokes beam — all of which must be aligned so that they interact correctly. “By using pulse shaping you can create the type of ...

The facility, which is geared towards sustainable additive manufacturing, will launch with an event on May 7th at the university’s Elite Centre for Manufacturing Skills (ECMS) on its Springfield ...

Shine a laser beam onto a moving object and the way the light is scattered will change in time. This causes problems for imaging and optical data transmission, as the information carried by the ...

The most recent work at AOS has been in demonstrating laser beam shaping systems and more conventional piezoelectric actuator plate-type deformable mirrors that exceed many of the specifications of ...

The University of Wolverhampton, UK, will host a two-day opening event for its Centre of Excellence for Shaped Laser Additive ...
