Modern electronics have been reaping the benefits of cheap, compact semiconductor lasers for years now. From the revolutions in CD and DVD optical data storage, through seemingly simple devices like ...

Tiny tubes of carbon that emit single photons from just one point along their length have been made in a deterministic manner ...

Asahi Kasei Corporation succeeded in designing a laser diode that emits deep-ultraviolet light. The laser diode emits the world’s shortest lasing wavelength, at 271.8 nanometers (nm), under pulsed ...

X-ray beams aren't used just by doctors to see inside your body and tell whether you have a broken bone. More powerful beams made up of very short flashes of X-rays can help scientists peer into the ...

New research has revealed how light can be used to destroy infectious coronavirus particles that contaminate surfaces. Scientists are interested in how environments, such as surgeries, can be ...

Researchers successfully conducted a room-temperature continuous-wave lasing of a deep-ultraviolet laser diode (wavelengths down to the UV-C region). A research group led by 2014 Nobel laureate ...

Scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) have reportedly made a major 'breakthrough' in solid-state deep ultraviolet (DUV) lasers. A paper published in a journal by International Society ...

Deep ultraviolet (DUV) laser generation has emerged as a critical field due to its utility in a diverse range of applications including high-precision lithography, spectroscopy and ultrafast science.

Japanese short wavelength crystal and laser specialist buys into US, extending wavelength offering from UV, through deep UV to "vacuum UV". Short-wavelength UV specialist Oxide. Japanese company Oxide ...

On October 5 and 6, about 45 industry and research representatives met at LASER COMPONENTS’ premises in Olching near Munich for the 3rd International UV WORKshop. For two days, they exchanged ...
