The experiment also showed that tuning the light beam controlled the propulsion—the stronger the laser, the greater the ...
For experiments that require ultra-precise measurements and control over atoms -- think two-photon atomic clocks, cold-atom interferometer sensors and quantum gates -- lasers are the technology of ...
Just as embroiderers, with needle and thread, can transform plain fabric into an intricate pattern, engineers can use lasers and polymers to create flexible, complex structures that could transform ...
Cutting grass with lasers works great in a test setup. (Credit: Allen Pan, YouTube) Wouldn’t it be cool if you could cut the grass with lasers? Everyone knows that lasers are basically magic, and if ...
A laser reshapes paper at the molecular level, creating bonds strong enough to hold 20 kg—without a drop of glue.
