To detect and monitor the climate pollutants in the atmosphere precisely, scientists at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL), Erlangen, Germany, have developed a new type of ...

The NIST ytterbium clock is based on about 30,000 heavy metal atoms that are ... pancake-shaped wells - an 'optical lattice' - made of laser light. A laser that 'ticks' 518 trillion times per ...

today announced that it has started the production of commercial samples of highly enriched Ytterbium-176, following the successful commissioning of the laser system at its first Quantum ...

today announced the successful enrichment of Ytterbium-176 using Quantum Enrichment, a novel laser isotope enrichment technique developed by scientists at ASP Isotopes working with world class ...

A team from Southampton Photonics and the Optoelectronics Research Centre at the University of Southampton has squeezed over 270W from a fibre laser. Using an ytterbium-doped fibre laser gave 272W of ...

It channels the heat generated by a laser into its center, heating the air to about 30,000 degrees and causing the it to explode, generating thrust. Small jets of pressurized nitrogen spin the ...
