A team at Harvard and Technical University of Vienna have invented a new tunable laser that uses a series of rings to smoothly emit many light wavelengths from a single chip. The laser could replace ...

Calculating laser power density What is a LiDAR point cloud? Wide array of applications for lasers. LiDAR (light detection and ranging) can measure the distance of an object (measuring the time for ...

For many years, semiconductor lasers, tiny chips emitting light, have been the workhorse of the optical communications industry, sending data signals around the world via a web of optical fibres.

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.

Osram Opto Semiconductors has introduced the first compact laser multi-chip package. The PLPM4 450 module can pack up to 20 blue laser chips into a single "butterfly" package for projection ...

Longview Fusion Energy, a firm leveraging the recent fusion breakthrough at the National Ignition Facility (NIF), has secured a contract with engineering, procurement, and construction specialist ...
