whereas the outstanding micromachining quality of femtosecond laser pulses is conserved. The resulting top-down percussion drilling gives taper-free, elongated, and crack-free holes with glossy ...

When researchers at the Galatea laboratory in Switzerland set out to create a femtosecond laser in glass they weren’t certain it was going to work. To be precise, their goal was to create a ...

Andreas Stingl, CEO of Austrian company Femtolasers, talks to Nadya Anscombe about the market for femtosecond lasers and their wide variety of applications. How mature is the market for ...

Alongside carbon dioxide, methane is a key driver of global warming. To detect and monitor the climate pollutants in the ...

By combining experimental measurements and modeling, scientists have precisely described the process of interaction between a femtosecond laser and amorphous silica. The modeling of this ...

Certain steps of traditional cataract surgery performed by phacoemulsification may soon be performed with increasing frequency by the femtosecond laser. Since the introduction of the femtosecond ...

In femtosecond fieldsocpy by using an ultrashort laser pulse the molecule's signal is separated from the laser pulse itself, making it easier to detect the vibrational response in a background ...
