Recently, the research team of the Aerospace Laser Technology and System Department of the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, reported for the first time a low repetition frequency full polarization maintaining 9-shaped cavity fiber laser at 915 nm. The relevant research results were published in Optics Express under the title "Low repetition rate 915 nm ...

The N-linear optical microscope has completely changed our ability to observe and understand complex biological processes. However, light can also harm organisms. However, little is known about the mechanisms behind the irreversible disturbances of strong light on cellular processes.To address this gap, the research teams of Hanieh Fattahi and Daniel Wehner from the Max Planck Institute for Photos...

Research backgroundIn transportation, industrial production, and practical life, icing often brings great troubles, and the most serious is that during the flight of an aircraft, key components once frozen will seriously affect navigation safety.The traditional passive deicing and anti icing strategies for aircraft, such as mechanical vibration and anti freezing liquids, have problems such as inco...
