LASER World of PHOTONICS CHINA- 20th Anniversary Celebration Coming Soon!

Recently, Novanta, a pioneer in advanced laser and optical subsystems for medical and industrial applications, announced that the company will relocate from its original official address (Emery Court in Stockport, UK) to a state-of-the-art 70000 square foot factory facility in nearby Orion Business Park. Its business capabilities will also be expanded fourfold to serve an expanding team and custom...

This week, an illustration was published on the cover of the international journal Science, showcasing a powerful mode-locked laser emitted from a miniature photonic semiconductor.A research team led by Alireza Marandi, a professor of electrical engineering and applied physics at the California Institute of Technology, has successfully developed a conventional mode-locked laser large enough to fit...

Dark solitons - the extinction region in a bright background - spontaneously form in a ring semiconductor laser. Observations conducted by an international research group may lead to improvements in molecular spectroscopy and integrated optoelectronics.Frequency comb - a pulse laser that outputs light at equidistant frequencies - is one of the most important achievements in the history of laser ph...

By using a new type of laser, the processing speed of wafers can be 10 to 20 times faster than before. This is the result of a research project at the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Systems in Germany.Researchers have developed a prototype that can use ultraviolet waves to carve the most intricate structures on silicon wafers. The new system concept enables solar cell manufacturers to perform lase...

Laserline will once again showcase its latest laser systems for joining and deposition welding at this year's Welding & Cutting show in Hall 5. This time the focus is on the world's first blue diode laser with an output power of 4 kW, which is said to have been developed for processing copper components.Its 445 nanometer wavelength is absorbed by copper and copper alloys, which is five t...
