In a first for the field, researchers from The Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign ...

The transmitter uses eight sequentially driven laser diodes, each of which produces an optical pulse power, length and wavelength of ∼50 W, 2 ns and 905 nm, respectively at a pulse rate of ∼30 kHz so ...

The ultrashort pulsed laser deposition of vanadium oxide thin films has been carried out by a frequency-doubled Nd:glass laser with a pulse duration of 250 fs. The characteristics of the plasma ...

Pulsed operation characteristics of a high-power 1550 nm tapered distributed Bragg Reflector (DBR) laser diode are described. The development targets applications such as LIDAR and range finding, ...
