CO2 laser cutting machine for battery shell shaped parts: an innovative tool in energy technology manufacturing

Scientists at the City University of New York use tiny nitrogen defects in the atomic structure of diamonds as "color centers" to write data for storage. This technology is published in the journal Nature Nanotechnology and allows for encoding multiple bytes of data into the same nitrogen defect at multiple optical frequencies, without confusing the information content.The common laser based techn...

Recently, the research team of the Special Glass and Fiber Research Center of the Advanced Laser and Optoelectronic Functional Materials Department of the Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, aimed at the demand for in-situ detection of Raman signals, expanded the functions of the laboratory commercial Renishaw Invia confocal micro Raman spectrometer by usi...

Recently, the team from the State Key Laboratory of Intense Field Laser Physics, Shanghai Institute of Optics and Mechanics, Chinese Academy of Sciences found that the third-order harmonics induced by air filamentation of high repetition rate femtosecond lasers have significant self jitter. To solve this bottleneck problem, a solution based on an external DC electric field was proposed, which sign...

In the process of selecting electric vehicles, the effectiveness of the heating system is often overlooked. However, this system is crucial for providing a warm and comfortable driving environment and removing frost and fog from winter windows. More importantly, it can also improve battery efficiency, as the battery performs best within a specific temperature range.Unlike internal combustion engin...

Us researchers report 8.1 μm wavelength quantum cascade laser (QCL) grown on silicon (Si) by MOCVD [S. Xu et al., Applications. Physics Letters, v123, p031110, 2023]. "There are no previous reports of QCL growth on silicon substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD)," commented the team from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign an...
