A Nd:YAG/KNbO(3) composite-material microchip laser has generated blue radiation at 473 nm with output powers of 1 mW when diode laser pumped and 9 mW when Ti:sapphire laser pumped. The fundamental radiation generated by the quasi-three-level (4)F(3/2)-(4)I(9/2) transition in Nd:YAG at 946 nm was frequency doubled in KNbO(3) angle cut to be type I critically phase matched at 45 degrees C. Despite the normally isotropic nature of Nd:YAG, the fundamental is emitted linearly polarized and orthogonal to the linearly polarized blue radiation.

Transfer printing based on tunable and reversible adhesive that enables the heterogeneous integration of materials is essential for developing envisioned electronic systems. An adhesive with both adhesion enhancement and reduction capabilities in a rapid and selective manner is challenging. Here, we report a laser-induced adhesive, featuring a geometrically simple shape memory polymer layer on a glass backing, with excellent adhesion modulation capability for programmable pickup and noncontact printing of microchips.

The recent advances in micromanufacturing have been pushing boundaries of the new generation of semiconductor devices, which, in the meantime, brings new challenges in the material and structural characterization - a key step to ensure the device quality through the micromanufacturing process. An ultrafast laser-enable optoacoustic characterization methodology is developed, targeting in situ calibration and delineation of the three-dimensional (3-D), nanoscopic interior features of opaque semiconductor chips. With the guidance of ultrafast electron-phonon coupling effect and velocity-perturbated optical interference, a femtosecond-laser pump-probe set-up based on Sagnac interferometer is configured to generate and acquire picosecond ultrasonic bulk waves (P-UBWs) traversing the microchips.

Water environments contaminated by heavy metal ions present significant challenges because these pollutants do not degrade naturally, leading to their gradual bioaccumulation in animals and plants, which ultimately poses an insurmountable threat to human health. Therefore, rapid and accurate detection of heavy metal ions in water is of great significance for environmental protection and disease prevention. In this work, we developed a novel method based on microfluidic electrophoresis coupled with indirect chemiluminescence for the immediate detection of Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II) heavy metal ions.

The abundance of potentially habitable hypersaline environments in our solar system compels us to understand the impacts of high-salt matrices and brine dynamics on biosignature detection efforts. We identified and quantified organic compounds in brines from South Bay Salt Works (SBSW), where evapoconcentration of ocean water enables exploration of the impact of NaCl- and MgCl-dominated brines on the detection of potential biosignature molecules. In SBSW, organic biosignature abundance and distribution are likely influenced by evapoconcentration, osmolyte accumulation, and preservation effects.
