The Mamyshev oscillator (MO) is a type of fiber laser capable of producing high-energy laser pulses at a tunable repetition ...

Fiber lasers aren’t nearly as common as their diode and CO2 cousins, but if you’re lucky enough to have one in your garage or local makerspace, this technique for depositing thin films of ...

Jack of all trades, master of none, as the saying goes, and that’s especially true for PCB prototyping tools. Sure, it’s possible to use a CNC router to mill out a PCB, and ditto for a … ...

This involved designing an optical element with commercial software, inserting the fiber into the 3D printer, and then printing the small structure on the end of the fiber. This process must be ...

"We significantly reduced the size of a laser by using 3D printing to fabricate high-quality micro-optics directly on glass fibers used inside of lasers," said research team leader Simon ...

Lasers have widespread applications as a light source in a variety of fields, including manufacturing, medicine, high-speed ...

02/20/2025 13:47 More efficient and brilliant diode lasers thanks to fiber Bragg gratings Petra Nolis M.A. Marketing & Kommunikation Fraunhofer-Institut für Lasertechnik ILT Whether they are ...

Choosing the right laser technology CO2 vs Fiber vs Diode depends on the specific needs of the application. CO2 lasers are versatile and effective for non-metallic materials, making them ideal for ...

Scientists have designed an amplifier that can transmit 10 times more information per second than current fiber-optic systems can, which could be helpful for medical treatment and diagnosis.

The laser link stretched over 1.5 miles at a speed of 1.25 Gigabits per second, and the company says it has achieved a top speed of just over 10 Gigabits, which is on par with the fastest fiber ...
