They shed light on atomic and molecular processes: ultrashort laser pulses are required to study extremely fast quantum phenomena. For years, scientists have been trying to tune the shape of light ...

(Nanowerk News) An international team of scientists discovered a new quantum control mechanism to selectively shake and break C-H bonds in symmetric hydrocarbon molecules with the waveform of ...

HAIFA, Israel, Nov. 29 (UPI) --Scientists in Israel have developed the world's first "water-wave laser," proof light and water waves can combine to generate laser radiation. Laser radiation is ...

Although the electromagnetic spectrum is a continuum, a strong distinction is typically drawn between electronics and optics. This distinction is due, in part, to the very different technologies used ...

[Emre] sent in a cool art piece he’s been working on that visualizes your voice without the use of a microcontroller. The project is called Visible Voice only consists of a laser, mirror, audio ...

The laser weapon designed to produce maximum pain has been abandoned by the Pentagon. Or maybe it's around, playing a whole new role as a drone killer. The Pulsed Energy Projectile (PEP) is an ...

Ultrashort laser pulses in the femtosecond range have proven to be effective tools in driving photochemical reactions: under the influence of light, electrons change their energy quantum states, ...
