There's been an incredible amount of hype around the xTool F2 Ultra, and rightly so. This dual-laser Galvo engraver is ...

A semiconductor-based laser used to generate analog signals or digital pulses for transmission through optical fibers. Both laser diodes and LEDs (light-emitting diodes) are used for this purpose, but ...

Laser diodes are used in a growing number of applications that include cutting and welding, machine vision, data communications, range finding and medical diagnostic systems. A report from Mordor ...

Modern electronics have been reaping the benefits of cheap, compact semiconductor lasers for years now. From the revolutions in CD and DVD optical data storage, through seemingly simple devices like ...

Paul Crump, head of the High-Power Diode Laser Lab at the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut (FBH) in Berlin, will lead the newly formed working group together with Will Fenwick from LLNL. Along with the FBH, ...

Innovation is the name of the game as laser diode makers strive to open up new markets for their products. Bookham explains that the trend towards higher powers must be matched by higher brightness ...

Continuous-wave laser diodes in precision-instrument applications require constant-current sources to drive them. Proper design of such a driver must involve careful tackling of robustness, stability, ...

Called RLD90QZW8, “original technology allows Rohm to reduce the temperature dependence of the laser wavelength to just Δ11.6nm – 0.10nm/°C”, said the company. “This makes it possible to narrow the ...

Solid-state and gas lasers have followed largely divergent development paths. Gas lasers are based primarily on direct electrical discharge for pumping (energizing), while solid-state lasers are ...

For effective laser hair removal results at home, it's important shave at the right time, avoid specific irritants and be ...

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen DIYers sending music over a laser beam but the brothers [Armand] and [Victor] are certainly in contention for sending the music the longest distance, 452 ...
