Like artists, scientists use color to paint clearer pictures of the things -- everything from combustion gases to cancer cells -- they study. And as a result of a new laser system that rapidly ...

A laser that changes colour when it stretches has been developed by a team of scientists from Germany and the US. Heino Finkelmann of Albert-Ludwigs University in Freiburg, Germany, and co-workers ...

Hobbyist 3D printers have had a home in the maker space for years now. Along the way, they’ve left a mark in our imaginations. They’ve tickled our fancy for watching a computer orchestrated symphony ...

These phase fluctuations create "noise" in the laser spectrum—they smudge the laser's frequency, making it less pure in color. The Raman technique works by transferring these timing irregularities ...

Fiber lasers are now well-developed and reliable devices used in a wide range of applications. As it occurs with other types of cavity resonators, the confinement of light within the optical cavity of ...

Researchers in Quebec, Canda, have developed the first fiber laser that can produce femtosecond pulses in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum. Fiber lasers producing ultrashort, bright ...

There are obvious differences between cancerous cells and normal cells in morphology, chemical properties and mechanical properties. The detection of cytochemical and mechanical properties of tumor ...

Wavelength measurement and spectral analysis with one instrument Spectral resolution as high as 2 GHz Wavelength accuracy as high as ± 0.0001 nm Operation available from 375 nm to 12 μm Operates with ...

Plastics processor Spectrum Plastics Group has made its second acquisition in six months, this time buying most of the assets of Laser Light Technologies LLC for an undisclosed price. In a May 3 news ...
