Laser drilling of titanium and its alloys is widely used in aerospace industry, as it offers selective removal of material at high accuracy and speed. However, laser drilling often inherits defects such as large heat affected zone, micro cracks and recast layer. These defects depend upon ... Read More
The process-induced deformation in the DED fabricated part is a critical issue to the scaling of the technology. Currently, an inefficient and expensive experiment trial-and-error approach is utilized to tackle this issue, however it is not feasible for large parts. Researchers have ... Read More
Quasi-static 2D-MEMS vector scanners are micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems (MOEMS) made of monocrystalline silicon. The primary application for these controllable micromirrors is the high dynamic and precise deflection of laser beams, for example in light detection and ranging ... Read More
This study presents a numerical investigation of optical butt-coupling between Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) operating at 850 nm and Standard Single-Mode Fiber (SSMF), a widely adopted configuration in cost-effective, high-speed optical interconnects, especially in ... Read More
Temperature measurement of nanoparticles (NPs) under heating is an important technique in order to achieve potential applications such as photothermal cancer therapy and nanofabrication. We implemented the method to estimate the local temperature of a laser-heated gold NP on glass ... Read More
This paper presents a numerical analysis of magnetic devices, dipole, quadrupole and undulator and a THz Free Electron Laser (FEL) electron-beam recovery system. Free Electron Laser are an important source of coherent radiation being used in the study of chemical properties of ... Read More
Silicon solar cells still require cost reduction and improved efficiency to become more competitive. New architectures can provide a significant increase in efficiency, but today most of the approaches need additional processing steps. In this context, laser processing offers a unique ... Read More
Nanoparticles are being extensively researched as a noninvasive method for selectively targeting and killing cancer cells. In this study, we model the thermal activation of gold nanospheres and nanorods in a fluidic environment to determine the thermal response of the surrounding medium. Read More
The aim of the study is to predict the formation of porosities in the case of spot laser welding of tantalum. During the interaction, a deep and narrow cavity, called the keyhole, is generated. At the end of the interaction, surface tension provokes the collapse of the keyhole. Gas ... Read More
Laser percussion drilling is widely used in the aerospace industry to produce cooling holes in jet engine components. This process is a thermal, contact-free process which involves firing a sequence of focused optical pulses onto a target material [1-4]. During each optical pulse, the ... Read More
