Dr. Mark Sobey, President of Coherent Lasers, has officially retired

Due to the growing demand for renewable energy, the need for modern technologies to dismantle existing underwater infrastructure is also growing.For example, in order to boost the power of an offshore wind farm to a higher level, the existing old steel frame, which may be below sea level, must first be removed so that engineers can rebuild the steel frame for higher power.In laboratory tests, rese...

Recently, Keyence announced that it has delivered the MD-U series of 3-axis controlled UV laser marking machines to its UK customers. This product technology utilizes ultraviolet lasers with high absorption rates to perform cold labeling on various materials - a process that can be carried out under minimum thermal stress.UV laser is generated by passing a standard wavelength laser (1064nm) throug...

From detecting COVID in respiration to monitoring greenhouse gas concentrations, laser technology called frequency combs can recognize specific molecules as simple as carbon dioxide to as complex as monoclonal antibodies, with unparalleled accuracy and sensitivity. Although frequency combs have incredible capabilities, their ability to capture high-speed processes such as hypersonic propulsion or ...

The latest research led by the University of Surrey shows that alumina (Al2O3) nanoparticles can significantly enhance the lifespan and stability of perovskite solar cells, extending the service life of such high-efficiency energy devices tenfold.Although perovskite solar cells have advantages such as low cost and light weight compared to traditional silicon-based technologies, their commercial po...

Researchers from the University of Calabria, University of Salento, and LUM University in Italy have reported on the progress of finite element prediction research on laser surface treatment of Ti6Al4V alloy: melt pool morphology and microstructure evolution. The related research was published in The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology under the title "Laser surface treatmen...
