Vigo University School of Technology invents laser glass recycling system

Starting company 3DM from Israel has developed a new laser powder bed fusion technology (SLS) and recently released its first product. It is reported that the new technology developed by this young company established in 2016 will open up the possibility of new materials.3DM quantum cascade laserThe quantum cascade laser (QCL) stands out in the competition of 3DM in the SLS field. QCL was develope...

Researchers from Ming Hsieh's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Southern California have designed the first optical device that follows the emerging optical thermodynamic framework.The work, reported in Nature Photonics, introduces a new way of routing light in nonlinear systems—meaning systems that do not require switches, external control, or digital addressi...

Recently, nLIGHT, a leading company in the fields of fiber optics and semiconductor lasers, announced the launch of two new laser technologies at The Battery Show North America: WELDForm and Automatic Parameter Adjustment (APT), aimed at meeting the dynamic needs of advanced battery manufacturing customers. In order to provide high-quality laser welding technology to the rapidly growing electric...

The interaction between strong laser pulses and plasma mirrors has been a focus of recent physical research, as they generate interesting effects. Experiments have shown that these interactions can generate a nonlinear physical process called high-order harmonics, characterized by emitting extreme ultraviolet radiation and brief flashes of laser light.Researchers from the Czech Extreme Light Infra...

Researchers at the Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne have resolved the long-standing debate surrounding laser additive manufacturing processes through a groundbreaking defect detection method.The development of laser additive manufacturing is often hindered by unexpected defects. Traditional monitoring methods, such as thermal imaging and machine learning algorithms, have shown significa...
