[Frankie] and [Bryan] have figured out a way to use the laser to chemically activate an etching process. See experiment part 2 as well. First, to be clear, they are using a quality 40W Epilog Zing ...

By placing a thin film on top of a DVD (or any plastic CD shaped disc), and coating it with graphite oxide, you can literally print patterns of graphene using the laser in your DVD burner.

A new solid-state laser produces 193-nm light for precision chipmaking and even creates vortex beams with orbital angular ...

Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences achieved a breakthrough in deep ultraviolet (DUV) laser technology by developing a compact, solid-state laser system that generates 193-nm coherent ...

Curiosity about a mistake that left tiny dots on a germanium wafer with evaporated metal films led to the discovery of beautiful spiral patterns etched on the surface of the semiconductor by a ...

with a power and build area suitable for laser engraving a range of materials. I've rounded up my top recommendations for crafters, hobbyists, beginners, and businesses. The xTool P2 is the best ...

Beautiful spiral patterns had been etched into the germanium surface by a chemical reaction. Wong's curiosity led her on a journey to discover what no one had seen before: Hundreds of near ...
