The move from infrared to blue laser processing will improve the precision of copper component assembly, particularly for electric cars, say scientists.

By adjusting the power of the green laser, the authors were able to change the induced resistance to blue light, at maximum efficiency reducing transmission of the blue laser by 22 percent.

KYOCERA SLD Laser, Inc. (KSLD), a world leader in commercialization of laser light sources, is introducing its new high power 5 watt blue laser diode ...

A team of scientists has found that the narrow beam of a laser can cast a shadow — a surprisingly counterintuitive finding.

Blue lasers, lasers that emit a light beam with a wavelength between 400 nm and 500 nm, are key components of various technologies, ranging from high-resolution displays to printers, medical ...

Turin, Italy-based laser module manufacturer Convergent Photonics is developing new sources for high-power industrial and mid-power medical laser applications thanks to the introduction of a new ...

PowerLight Technologies says it's joined a team headed by Blue Origin to design a power beaming system for charging up robots on the moon.

Researchers have found that under certain conditions, a laser beam can act like an opaque object and cast a shadow, opening new possibilities for technologies that could use a laser beam to ...

Now there’s a laser vape. Meet Luminary’s The Beam, a handheld, pocket-sized vaporizer that uses a class-1 laser you can actually see to heat weed extracts. I thought for sure it was a gimmick.
