Lasers are known for the monochromatic nature of their light, so much so that you might never have thought there could be such a thing as a white laser. But in the weird world of physics ...

Laser diodes are semiconductors that generate light and amplify it using repeated reflection or "optical feedback." Once the ...

A hiker was baffled by a bizarre column of light shooting upwards into the sky from a mountaintop in China. Holidaymaker Ms Zhao was visiting her relatives in Zixing, Hunan, when she saw the ...

T oday, silicon photonic circuits connect server racks and play key roles in chemical sensors, biosensors, and LIDAR for self ...

Lasers, LEDs and light sources are devices that create light. LEDs (light emitting diodes) convert an electrical current into light using spontaneous emission in optically active semiconductors.

In celebration of Super Bowl LIX, laser light projections will illuminate St. Louis Cathedral and other Jackson Square ...

And with the correct choice of laser wavelength, the light can destroy one type of material, while leaving others intact. Furthermore, laser power can be used in a blunt way, such as welding parts ...

You will learn about semiconductor light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and lasers, and the important rules for their analysis, planning, design, and implementation. You will also apply your knowledge through ...

He knew that laser rangefinders are a good way to go and ... Obviously his endeavor failed or we wouldn’t be talking about it in this column. But there’s a lot to learn about his methods ...

Selective photothermolysis is the fundamental principle underlying the low-risk laser treatment of vascular lesions, pigmented lesions, and tattoos. Melanin, the main chromophore in most epidermal ...

This important classification allows for the appropriate selection of laser wavelengths in treatment considerations.
