Who doesn't love a humongous laser? Here at ExtremeTech, we're fans of both 1) technology and 2) extremes, and lasers are toward the far end of both spectra. So, do you have a minute? In the spirit of ...

The unique characteristics of fluoride ceramics, including phonon energy, refractive index, and nonlinear refractive index, render them highly suitable as laser matrix materials. Fluoride-based laser ...

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 ...

There are many different types of lasers—almost as many as there are applications for the same—but what ties them all together as a class is that they depend on the same physical effect: stimulated ...
