A school gym-sized facility tucked away at the University of Michigan is quietly pushing the boundaries of what lasers can do ...

This laser, which was reported in 2017, produced a power roughly 1,000 times larger than all the electrical power on Earth in a laser pulse that only lasts twenty quadrillionths of a second.

The US has a new most powerful laser – creating more than 100 times the global electricity power output. The ZEUS laser facility at the University of Michigan has roughly doubled the peak power ...

The University of Michigan has announced that its Zettawatt-Equivalent Ultrashort pulse laser System (ZEUS) produced 2 petawatts, or 2 quadrillion watts of power during its first experiment.That ...

A laser named after the most powerful god in ancient Greece is living up to its name. According to the University of Michigan, the first official experiment from the Zettawatt-Equivalent ...

He then listed several developers of the high power ultrafast lasers of interest: “Nowadays you can buy 2 kilowatt laser delivering ultrashort pulses, such as from Active Fiber Systems (Jena).

Create shorter, more powerful laser pulses with transmission gratings from Wasatch Photonics. Our volume phase holographic (VPH) technology is exceptional for pulse compression and pulse stretching of ...

Those tough-to-kill bacteria such as MRSA and E.coli have met their match in ultrashort-pulse laser technology, discovered at a medical school in St. Louis, MO.

In a few picoseconds (trillionths of a second), a small, thin piece of copper momentarily becomes dense plasma, specifically a state called warm dense matter, warm being a relative term – the metal is ...

Researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have found that multidrug-resistant bacteria and bacterial spores can be killed by ultrashort-pulse lasers. The findings could ...
