Laser marking is demonstrated using a nanosecond (ns) pulse duration laser in combination with a liquid crystal spatial light modulator to generate two-dimensional patterns directly onto thin films and bulk metal surfaces. Previous demonstrations of laser marking with such devices have been limited to low average power lasers. Application in the ns regime enables more complex, larger scale marks to be generated with more widely available and industrially proven laser systems. The dynamic nature of the device is utilized to improve mark quality by reducing the impact of the inherently speckled intensity distribution across the generated image and reduce thermal effects in the marked surface.

Fluorescence-guided surgeries, including tumor resection and tissue soldering, are advancing the frontiers of surgical precision by offering enhanced control that minimizes tissue damage, improving recovery and outcomes. However, integrating fluorescence visualization with real-time temperature monitoring remains a challenge, limiting broader clinical use. We address this issue with an augmented reality (AR) visor that combines nanomaterial excitation, fluorescence detection, and temperature monitoring.

The reliable detection of ammonia at room temperature is crucial for not only maintaining environmental safety but also for reducing the risks of hazardous pollutants. In this study, the electrochemical modification of laser-induced graphene (LIG) with polyaniline (PANI) led to the development of a chemo-resistive nanocomposite (PANI@LIG) for detecting ammonia levels at room temperature. The composite is characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transforms infrared, and Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Background: Ablative fractional CO laser (10,600 nm) treatment creates an array of microscopic treatment zones composed of an ablation zone (AZ) surrounded by a denatured coagulation zone (CZ). The CZ is believed to play a functional role in skin tightening, posttreatment inflammation, and laser-assisted drug delivery. This study investigates the viability of enzymatic post-processing to remove the CZ without affecting the surrounding tissue.

Striae distensae (SD) are a skin disorder characterized by linear atrophic depression of the dermis due to stretching of the skin. There are various SD therapy modalities, namely topical therapy, peeling, microneedling, platelet-rich plasma, and laser. Until now, there has been no standard therapy for SD, but several therapeutic modalities can reduce clinical symptoms, so knowledge about the current management of SD is needed.
