New type of femtosecond laser: used for broadband terahertz generation and nonlinear wafer detection

Nowadays, lasers that emit extremely short flashes can be found in many research laboratories, but they usually fill the entire room. Physicists have now successfully reduced this laser to the size of a computer chip. As they reported in the journal Science, their research can lay the foundation for extremely compact detectors.A team led by Qiushi Guo from the California Institute of Technology in...

Professor Zhang Peilei's team from Shanghai University of Engineering and Technology, in collaboration with the research team from Warwick University and Autuch (Shanghai) Laser Technology Co., Ltd., published a review paper titled "A review of ultra shot pulse laser micromachining of wide bandgap semiconductor materials: SiC and GaN" in the international journal Materials Science in Semiconductor...

Recently, two leading UK scientific institutions, Diamond Light Source and National Physical Laboratory (NPL), have reached a new five-year agreement to promote joint collaborative efforts.The agreement was approved by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), which will bring these two institutions together.Diamond Light Source is a national synchrotron facility in the UK known for generating ...

In 2017, the detection of gravitational waves generated by the merger of binary neutron stars marked a significant breakthrough in physics. These waves reveal important information about the universe, from the origin of short gamma ray bursts to the formation of heavy elements.However, capturing gravitational waves from the merged residue remains a challenge as these waves avoid the detection rang...
