Google works with magic leap on AR optics and manufacturing

Researchers from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Johns Hopkins University have reported that machine learning and molecular dynamics simulations can help to gain a deeper understanding of the formation of condensation rings in laser spot welding. The related paper titled 'Machine learning and molecular dynamics simulations aided insights into conditioned ring formation in laser spot ...

In 2024, the laser industry will still reach new heights, although some predicted concerns have been fulfilled! From beginning to end, the development path of the manufacturing industry has been full of uncertainty, but as time passes and we enter a new year, new technologies continue to emerge like mushrooms after rain.In 2025, practitioners in the laser and manufacturing industries still face ma...

Rydberg atoms and molecules are characterized by having one or more electrons in highly excited bound states. Such atoms and molecules are said to be in “Rydberg states” and are also called “hollow” atoms and molecules. Rydberg states are useful for studying various phenomena arising in intense light–matter interaction that involve electronic excitation with an intens...

Many materials emit light in ways that encode information in its polarization. According to researchers at École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, polarization is key for future technologies, from quantum computers to secure communication and holographic displays.Among such phenomena is a form known as circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), a special type of light emission ...
