Tiny, artificial earthquake-like waves generated by lasers may be the key to smaller, faster, and more efficient computer ...

Engineers have created a device that generates incredibly tiny, earthquake-like vibrations on a microchip—and it could ...

The surface of a material plays a pivotal role in determining its mechanical properties (e.g., friction and wear), the interaction with the environment (e.g., wettability), optical appearance, ...

A novel manufacturing strategy of 7-axis synchronization on-the-fly laser surface texturing, proposed by Harbin Institute of Technology researchers, enables ...

In this work, a gigahertz burst mode femtosecond laser was used to produce LIPSS to study its capacity to form novel microscale and nanoscale structures. The team discovered that the GHz burst mode ...

Laser-based manufacturing and materials processing technology has proven to be a well-established and cutting-edge technology ...

The electronic and optical devices that we use on a daily basis, such as mobile phones, LEDs and solar cells use transistors and other constituents that are consistently getting smaller and more ...

A patent-pending process developed by Purdue University engineers could improve the quality of life for the more than 6 million people who undergo orthopedic and trauma surgery annually, according to ...

In a first for the field, researchers from The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have reported a photopumped lasing from a buried dielectric ...
