A semiconductor-based laser used to generate analog signals or digital pulses for transmission through optical fibers. Both laser diodes and LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are used for this purpose, but ...

When we talk about the amplification of electrical signals, we are typically not too concerned about whether or not the amplified signal is actually the original signal – just amplified. The minuscule ...

Stack with high-power diode lasers optimized for emerging ultra-high power laser applications. Diode stack with high-power diode lasers for the kilowatt range. Diode lasers have been the key elements ...

Diode-pumped alkali lasers (DPALs) represent a significant advance in laser technology, merging the efficiency of semiconductor pumping with the unique properties of alkali vapour media. By utilising ...

When we think about the onward march of automotive technology, headlights aren’t usually the first thing that come to mind. Engines, fuel efficiency, and the switch to electric power are all more ...

Three laser experiments today: laser-induced electroless copper plating, laser-assisted electroplating on stainless steel, and laser-induced chemical liquid phase deposition onto glass. Whoo! I'm ...

Nagoya University scientists, in cooperation with Asahi Kasei Corporation, have succeeded in designing a laser diode that emits deep-ultraviolet light, according to research published in the journal ...

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 ...
