A one-quintillionth-of-a-second lasing breakthrough could lead to next-generation X-ray technologies, improving imaging in medical, materials and quantum science. (Nanowerk News) Once only a part of ...

Researchers at Columbia have created a chip that turns a single laser into a “frequency comb,” producing dozens of powerful light channels at once. Using a special locking mechanism to clean messy ...

A new photonics chip that generates multicolored laser beams could supercharge data center technology and ease the strain of AI's surging data demands. When you purchase through links on our site, we ...

Strong laser fields were supposed to be the cleanest way to watch electrons move, yet the latest experiments show that the vacuum itself can quietly reshape what those fields do. By flooding matter ...

A few years ago, researchers in Michal Lipson’s lab noticed something remarkable. They were working on a project to improve LiDAR, a technology that uses lightwaves to measure distance. The lab was ...

Recent advances in ultrafast laser technology have enabled precise interrogation of molecular dynamics on timescales down to tens of femtoseconds. This field investigates how strong laser fields ...

The phenomenon of nonsequential double ionization (NSDI) occurs when two electrons are removed from an atom in a correlated manner under the influence of an intense laser field. Unlike sequential ...
