The world's first 40000 watt groove laser cutting machine is put into production in China

Topological laser (TL) is a laser device designed and manufactured using the principles of topological optics, which can produce a robust single-mode laser and is an ideal light source for future new optoelectronic integrated chips. Electrically pumped topology lasers have become a research hotspot due to their small size and ease of integration, but topology lasers based on electrical injection a...

Recently, the German research institution Fraunhofer ILT team is collaborating with the Department of Optical Systems Technology (TOS) at RWTH Aachen University to develop a testing system aimed at studying complex laser beam profiles using a new platform. This platform can construct customized beam profiles for laser powder melting (PBF-LB) 3D printing, thereby improving part quality, process sta...

Sivers Optics, a subsidiary of Sivers Semiconductors, has signed a product development agreement with an undisclosed company.Starting from the initial contract worth $1.3 million, the prototype will be delivered in 2024, and it is expected that the agreement will grow rapidly in 2025 before transitioning to mass production. After entering full production, customers expect the annual chip productio...

Rydberg atoms and molecules are characterized by having one or more electrons in highly excited bound states. Such atoms and molecules are said to be in “Rydberg states” and are also called “hollow” atoms and molecules. Rydberg states are useful for studying various phenomena arising in intense light–matter interaction that involve electronic excitation with an intens...

Recently, the Aerospace Laser Technology and System Department of the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Precision Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the East China Research Team of the Key Laboratory of Quantum Optics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with the research team of Professor Chen Liqing of East China Normal University, demonstrated a Rydberg microwave sensor with high sens...
