Recently, the UAE Rainfall Enhancement Scientific Research Program launched a groundbreaking project with Dr. Guillaume Matras and his team from the Directional Energy Research Center of the Institute of Technology Innovation, aiming to address the challenge of global water shortage through advanced technology. This collaboration marks an important milestone in the field of rainfall enhancement sc...

Set up a dual comb fiber laser oscillator, external pulse combination, and real-time detection.In innovative methods for controlling ultra short laser flashes, researchers from Bayreuth University and Konstanz University are using soliton physics and two pulse combs in a single laser. This method has the potential to greatly accelerate and simplify laser applications.Traditionally, the pulse inter...

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...

The 3500W free output blue semiconductor laser beam is output in a free space manner, with a rectangular spot directly acting on the material surface without the need for fiber optics or laser processing heads. This laser has a wavelength of 455 ± 10nm, with continuously adjustable power and a maximum output power of over 3500W. It is mainly used for non-ferrous metal cladding, quenching, etc., to...
