Miniaturized Lasers: Unleashing Unprecedented Power on a Fingertip
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Interesting Engineering
Scientists have developed a nanophotonic chip that houses ultrafast mode-locked lasers, which are typically large and expensive. These lasers generate extremely short pulses of light and have various applications in scientific, industrial, and medical fields. The miniaturized version of these lasers can fit on the tip of a fingertip, making them more practical for everyday use.
