ICALEO 2013 Offers Achievable New Horizons for Laser Industry
By Geoff Giordano Much like the laser-assisted femto photography that has allowed MIT researchers to see around corners, the 32nd International Congress on Applications of Lasers & Electro-Optics (ICALEO®) illuminated photonic research in everything from routine processing to more arcane applications like laser-assisted generation of human cells. And, as did plenary speaker Boris Chichkov with […]
Origin and New Wave of Laser Welding
By Isamu Miyamoto The author started laser materials processing in 1965 with developing the CO2 laser, and since then has been involved in a variety of materials processing using CW (continuous wave) to USLP (ultrashort laser pulse). Among them laser welding has attracted a lot of the author’s interest because of its profound and interesting […]
