A new theoretical study finds shorter laser pulses achieve higher quantum efficiency for photoemission from a solid surface ...

This article reviews advances in laser shock peening (LSP) across nanosecond to femtosecond pulse duration, highlighting that nanosecond LSP enables surface strengthening and fatigue resistance via ...

A University of Michigan study suggests that shortening laser pulses to subcycle durations can increase quantum efficiency in photoemission by up to 10 orders of magnitude without raising power or ...

The laser wavelength, pulse duration, and fluence (energy density) significantly influence the ablation process and the resulting plasma plume. Shorter wavelengths and higher fluences generally lead ...

Researchers describe a new device, the ''stretched-pulse soliton Kerr resonator,'' that creates an ultrafast laser pulse that is freed from the physical limits endemic to sources of laser light and ...

The development of power diode pump laser sources that demonstrate extended life and higher brightness have resulted in this novel technology becoming commercially feasible. This effect prevents ...

Researchers have demonstrated a record-high laser pulse intensity of over 10 to the exponent 23 W/cm2 using a petawatt laser. It took more than a decade to reach this laser intensity. These ultrahigh ...

Efficient 1.5 W CW and 9 mJ quasi-CW TEM00 mode operation of a compact diode-laser-pumped 2.94 µm Er:YAG laser Sheaumann has developed the first commercially available diode-laser-pumped continuously ...
