Sivers will develop laser arrays for artificial intelligence and deliver prototypes in 2024

German laser Fusion developer Marvel Fusion said it will partner with Colorado State University (CSU) on a new $150 million laser equipment lab to study inertial fusion energy and high energy density physics."It will be home to one of the most powerful laser facilities in the world and an international center for laser fusion energy and high energy density physics research," the company said in a ...

Typically, for lasers in optical communication systems, waveguide designs are used to achieve a single transverse mode. By adjusting the thickness of the surrounding area of the cladding layer and the etching depth of the ridge in the ridge waveguide device, a single mode device can be obtained. The importance of lasers is reflected in the following aspects:A chip without ridge waveguide design an...

The new architecture based on metamaterials provides a promising platform for constructing large-scale production and reprogrammable solutions that can perform computational tasks using light.The idea of simulating computers - a device that uses continuous variables instead of zero sum ones - may evoke outdated machinery, from mechanical watches to bomb sight devices used in World War II. But emer...

Researchers from Shantou University have reported a review of residual stresses in metal additive manufacturing: detection techniques, numerical simulations, and mitigation strategies. The relevant paper titled "A comprehensive review of residual stress in metal additive manufacturing: detection techniques, numerical simulations, and mitigation strategies" was published in the Journal of the Brazi...

Dark solitons - the extinction region in a bright background - spontaneously form in a ring semiconductor laser. Observations conducted by an international research group may lead to improvements in molecular spectroscopy and integrated optoelectronics.Frequency comb - a pulse laser that outputs light at equidistant frequencies - is one of the most important achievements in the history of laser ph...
