The carbon dioxide laser market is expected to reach 7.1 billion US dollars by 2033

German laser Fusion developer Marvel Fusion said it will partner with Colorado State University (CSU) on a new $150 million laser equipment lab to study inertial fusion energy and high energy density physics."It will be home to one of the most powerful laser facilities in the world and an international center for laser fusion energy and high energy density physics research," the company said in a ...

Researchers from Bayreuth University and Konstanz University are developing new methods to control ultra short laser emission using soliton physics and two pulse combs in a single laser. This method has the potential to greatly accelerate and simplify laser applications.Traditionally, the pulse interval of lasers is set by dividing each pulse into two pulses and delaying them at different, mechani...

Recently, the High Power Laser Element Technology and Engineering Department of the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made progress in the research of picosecond reflectors based on composite materials. The relevant research results are titled "Hybrid material based mirror coatings for picosecond laser applications" and published in Optics and Laser Techn...

PhotonVentures, based in Eindhoven, the Netherlands, has announced the launch of a venture capital fund designed to help early-stage photonic chip startups and scale-up businesses.In the first round of funding, PhotonDelta, a Dutch photonic integrated circuit (PIC) pioneer, raised €60 million as the lead investor and numerous private investors. PhotonVentures said it plans to raise a total of...
