The creator of a computer that uses lasers to perform complex tasks at the speed of light has announced a breakthrough in high-performance computing

Researchers at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology have developed a coherently controlled spin optical laser based on a single atomic layer.This discovery was made possible by coherent spin-dependent interactions between a single atomic layer and a laterally constrained photonic spin lattice, which supports a high-Q spin valley through Rashaba-type spin splitting of photons of bound states...

It is reported that recently researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences have achieved the highest power output of 193 nm and 221 nm lasers using lithium borate (LBO) crystals. This achievement lays the foundation for the further application of the laser in deep ultraviolet (DUV) spectroscopy.The laser in DUV spectroscopy has many applications in science and technology, such as defect detecti...

Infrared imaging and sensing technology can be used in various fields, from astronomy to chemistry. For example, when infrared light passes through a gas, sensing changes in light can help scientists identify specific properties of the gas. The use of visible light may not always achieve this sensing.However, existing infrared sensors are bulky and inefficient. In addition, due to the use of infra...

The development of additive manufacturing (AM) has profoundly changed the manufacturing industry, and this technology has been applied in fields such as food, medicine, automotive, and electronic components. Especially in the aerospace field, where extremely lightweight and high-strength (~500mpa) components are required, aluminum alloy additive manufacturing is considered a very promising solutio...
