Display lasers are used to create dramatic effects and are especially popular for staged entertainment shows. This guidance assumes that a specialist laser display company is contracted to provide the ...

For the experiment, a high-power green laser was directed through ruby cube and illuminated with a blue laser from the side. The green laser increases the optical absorption of the blue illuminating ...

Over the past several decades, researchers have been making rapid progress in harnessing light to enable all sorts of ...

A flash of light hits a simple iron crystal. In the space of a trillionth of a second, its magnetic behavior shifts, as if ...

In a new study published in Nature Physics, researchers have demonstrated that quantum light, particularly bright squeezed ...

For decades, scientists have sought ways to compress the tools of optical science – lasers, lenses, mirrors – onto chips that fit on a fingertip. Such ...

When an intense laser pulse hits an electron at rest, the latter performs a quiver motion with the frequency of the light ...

When a high-energy laser hits certain substances, their atoms are ionized and heated into a plasma in a process known as laser-induced breakdown. After the laser is switched off, the electrons and ...
