The laser module is one of the least reliable components in such a system. For that reason, it remains in a convenient pluggable form, enabling easy and inexpensive replacement. If designers were to ...

Laser-produced plasmas are plasmas produced by firing high-intensity beams of light. Laser-produced plasmas have been used to create short bursts of x-rays and to accelerate particles — so-called ...

Getting PCBs made is often the key step in taking a dodgy lab experiment and turning it into a functional piece of equipment.

Ultrafast lasers are lasers that produce short pulses of light, typically less than one picosecond. These devices often rely on techniques such as mode locking to create a train of pulses. Ultrafast ...
