How Laser4Surf tackled the pandemic to produce a laser texturing prototype that will launch a battery manufacturing industry in Europe and boost the performance of linear encoders and medical implants. … Read more
When LIPSS were first discovered no-one truly knew how or why these surface ripples formed. This has now changed largely thanks to breakthrough research from physicist Jörn Bonse, staff scientist … Read more
Be it surface ablation on a medical implant or nanobubble formation in an encoder – Spain-based engineers have built an in-line monitoring unit to detect defects during laser structuring of … Read more
From learning about LIPSS to coping with coronavirus, Dr Yves Hernandez, Head of Applied Photonics at Multitel, explains how he and colleagues made the modules that bend and shape the … Read more
From aerospace and astronomy to medical imaging and semiconductor manufacture, a vast range of applications rely on a little-known device. Meet the optical encoder. Whether it is a distance or … Read more
Be it for machine tools or solar plants, Dr Aitor Olarra has spent nearly two decades developing the encoders that determine positioning performance. Here he tells Laser4surf how he developed … Read more
Professor Gérard Mourou, won the 2018 Nobel Prize in Physics, with Professor Donna Strickland, for inventing chirped pulse amplification to create ultrashort, high intensity laser pulses. Here, he tells Laser4Surf … Read more
