Silicon, the cornerstone of modern electronics, photovoltaics, and photonics, has traditionally been limited to surface-level nanofabrication due to the challenges posed by existing lithographic ...

Multiphoton lithography (often called multiphoton 3D lithography) is an additive manufacturing approach for fabricating intricate micro- and nanostructures. It relies on nonlinear optical absorption, ...

WASHINGTON — Researchers have developed a process to turn crab shells into a bioplastic that can be used to make optical components known as diffraction gratings. The resulting lightweight, ...

Laser diffraction is a formidable and widely embraced technology for particle size determination. However, regardless of the instrument employed, researchers will inevitably encounter data quality ...

A recent article in Engineering ("Advancing Manufacturing Limits: Ultrafast Laser Nanofabrication Techniques") by Zhenyuan Lin, Lingfei Ji, and Minghui Hong examines current developments in ultrafast ...

In 1964, just four years after Theodore Maiman's pioneering laser operation at the Hughes Research Laboratory in California, the James Bond film Goldfinger hinted at laser cutting, albeit for less ...
