The FC10 (10-mm aperture) and FC20 (20-mm aperture) laser fiber collimators provide a centered beam with a clean Gaussian profile of less than 1/10-wave wavefront ...

Tesla has been working on a technology consisting of laser beams installed on vehicles, and other products, to automatically clean debris off the windshield of its cars. No, I am not kidding. If you ...

In the last few decades, only temporal modes have been considered for mode-locked fiber lasers using single-mode fibers. Mode-locked single-mode fiber lasers offer advantages due to their high-gain ...

The NASA Artemis missions aim to send astronauts to the moon by 2024. But to succeed, they’ll need to solve big problems caused by some tiny particles: dust. Horányi and colleagues have discovered a ...

A newly developed technique to create a "tractor beam" made of water could help to contain oil spills. Researchers have created patterns of liquid waves that force a floating object to move in the ...
