Today we're (micro)-machining glass with a fiber laser. Using a copper sulfate solution, we can etch glass with a pulsed ...

pilots at a nearby airfield getting their retinas blasted out due to an absolutely harebrained idea to use a fairly high-powered Quanta-Ray Nd:YAG laser on reflective surfaces in the open.

A dye makes the laser yellow, dictating wavelengths of light that hit the skin. Neodymium yttrium–aluminum–garnet (Nd:YAG) lasers are especially effective for visible blood vessels in the face.

The solution to both of these problems lay in the further development of the laser sources. The breakthrough came with the replacement of the Nd:YAG laser by the modern diode laser which today ...

The device worked by taking an infrared Nd:YAG laser, and focusing the beam to an extremely small point. At that point, the atmosphere heats up enough to turn into plasma and turns into a bright ...

PIV is a non-intrusive optical measurement technique to measure fluid or particle velocity vectors at many points in a flow field simultaneously. It enables both quantitative and qualitative ...
