HP100A-50KW-GD laser power detector for measuring extremely high power laser beams

A game museum has 3D printed a replica of a historic arcade computer space. The arcade museum in Stroud, Gloucestershire lacks the first commercial arcade video game. They collaborated with Heber company to create a real replica. Neil Thomas, the director of the arcade museum, said that because it is a replica, not an original, they are not "afraid" of letting people play with it.A spokesperson...

The optical properties of photonic crystals are closely related to their lattice constants, which are usually required to be in the same order of magnitude as the operating wavelength. In a crystal material, the photonic crystal structure is formed by the periodic arrangement in space of units whose dielectric constant is different from that of the crystal itself, and whose lattice constant depend...

Main author: Yanming Zhang, Wentao Yana*The first unit: National University of SingaporePublished Journal: Acta MaterialiaResearch backgroundIndustry pain point: Although laser powder bed melting (LPBF) technology can manufacture complex components, the lack of consistent product quality is still the core bottleneck restricting its industrial application. Research has shown that up to 35% of proce...

Recently, German laser giant Trumpf released data for the fiscal year 2023/24. The latest financial report shows that the group's sales decreased by 4% and order volume decreased by 10% in the fiscal year 2023/24.Despite these setbacks, Germany has become the company's strongest single market for the first time in many years, highlighting a shift in market dynamics.At the end of this fiscal year, ...

Two photon polymerization is a potential method for nanofabrication of integrated nanomaterials based on femtosecond laser technology. The challenges faced in the field of 3D nanoprinting include slow layer by layer printing speed and limited material selection due to laser material interactions.In a new report in Progress in Science, Chenqi Yi and a team of scientists in the fields of technical s...
