BOULDER, Colo. — Researchers at the University of Colorado have boosted the output power and reduced the beam wavelength of their tabletop extreme ultraviolet (EUV) laser system built with ...

A team of researchers at the University of Colorado at Boulder has developed a new technique to generate laser-like X-ray beams, removing a major obstacle in the decades-long quest to build a tabletop ...

BOULDER, Colo. — A small, inexpensive tabletop laser system that can produce coherent extreme-ultraviolet laser light has been built by a research team at the University of Colorado. The system uses a ...

Laser ion acceleration uses intense laser flashes to heat electrons of a solid to enormous temperatures and propel these charged particles to extreme speeds. These have recently gained traction for ...

Using a tabletop laser, an optical scientist has turned pure aluminum gold. And blue. And gray. And many other colors. And it works for every metal tested, including platinum, titanium, tungsten, ...

LINCOLN, R.I.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2006--The Solder Paste Group of EFD, Inc. and Leister Technologies LLC have agreed to a cooperative marketing effort for a unique, high-speed, high-precision, ...

Scientists at Stanford University and the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have collaborated with a local startup company to turn a novel tabletop laser - one that produces ...

Carbon and oxygen have a high absorption contrast. This is used to study biological and mineral samples via the “water window“, which has a spectral range between λ = 2.3 – 4.4 nm. Transmission X-ray ...

Engineers at Colorado State University in the US have developed a tabletop top device that is one of the brightest sources of millijoule level soft X-ray laser pulses. The device generates 16.9 ...

A laser pulse through a capillary filled with hydrogen plasma creates a wake that can accelerate an electron beam to a billion electron volts in just 3.3 centimeters. The same LOASIS accelerating ...

Laser-plasma accelerators (LPAs) got the nickname "tabletop" because, as shown by the unique BELLA accelerator at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), ...

A drop of methanol is distorted to form a cup of hot plasma. Plasma waves are driven in this cup by an intense laser, releasing hot electrons, followed by accelerated protons. Credit: Created by the ...
