Physicists at the University of Warsaw have generated a miniature “laser tornado” inside nanoscale structures by engineering ...

A team has been developing a new type of laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) for laser printing using an optical vortex, which has been dubbed OV-LIFT. The team succeeded in printing crystals with ...

Can light behave like a whirlwind? It turns out it can—and such "optical tornadoes" have now been created in an extremely ...

Scientists at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) have devised a new way of creating twisted laser beams -- optical vortexes -- for carrying vast, near-infinite amounts of data down optical ...

Deep ultraviolet (DUV) lasers, known for their high photon energy and short wavelengths, are essential in various fields such as semiconductor lithography, high-resolution spectroscopy, precision ...

Researchers have succeeded in printing uniformly sized droplets with a diameter of approximately 100 µm using a liquid film of fluorescent ink. This ink, with a viscosity roughly 100 times that of ...

A laser beam converted to an optical vortex can perform laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) of ferrite nanoparticles resulting in twisted single crystals corresponding to the rotation of the vortex.

(Nanowerk News) Will printed photographs ever match the precision of a mirror's reflection? Even though the answer may still be no for a while, Osaka Metropolitan University scientists have made ...
