Engineers have built the first fully solid-state phonon laser on a single chip, generating surface acoustic waves at about 1 ...

Streams of ultrashort light pulses delivered from mode-locked laser resonators stimulate potential applications in ultrafast science and information technology. Here the elementary pulse entity, ...

Byspeed 3015 laser cutters feature 5,200-W resonators with adaptive radius control (ARC). ARC provides automatic optimization of beam diameters for cutting sheetmetal and other materials. This ...

The research team at Fraunhofer IAF has succeeded in combining two active media, an NV diamond and a laser diode, in an optical resonator and thus demonstrating the laser threshold for the first time.

Output couplers are used predominantly in laser resonators to extract the beam. The laser resonator is optimised through suitable choice of degree of reflection of the output coupler. Output couplers ...
