Lasers that emit extremely short light pulses are highly precise and are used in manufacturing, medical applications, and research. The problem: efficient short-pulse lasers require a lot of space and ...

For the first time, researchers at Umeå University, Sweden, have demonstrated the full capabilities of their large-scale laser facility. The team reports generating a combination of ultrashort laser ...

“With our new system, we can achieve levels of efficiency that were previously almost unattainable,” says Prof. Harald Giessen, Head of the 4th Physics Institute at the University of Stuttgart.

Characterization of the experimental setup. a) Schematic of the steps involved in the experiment. A pair of XUV pulses (drawn in violet) photoemits electrons from a ZnO crystal. The electrons ...

The nickel-titanium alloy Nitinol has revolutionized certain segments of the medical device industry. Its unique characteristics have been employed to create a new generation of devices such as ...
