Fused silica has become the preferred optical material in the field of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) due to its excellent performance; however, these costly optical elements are vulnerable, and their manufacture is time-consuming. Therefore, the restoration of laser-induced damage for these optical elements is of great value. To restrain the post-restoration raised rim problem in the CO laser repair process to improve the restoration quality, the separate influences of key parameters of laser power, irradiation duration, and laser beam diameter on post-restoration pit morphology are compared in combined simulation and experimental studies. An optimized, patterned CO2 laser strategy is proposed and verified; the results indicate that, with the strategy, the rim height decreases from 2.6 μm to 1.52 μm, and maximal photo thermal absorption is decreased from 784.2 PPM to 209.43 PPM.

The poor interlaminar fracture toughness is a critical limiting factor for the structural applications of aramid fiber/epoxy resin composites. This study investigates the effects of laser-induced graphene (LIG) and short Kevlar fibers on the interfacial toughness and damage detection of aramid composite materials. Mode II tests and tensile tests were conducted to evaluate mechanical properties and damage detection using the piezoresistive characteristics of LIG.

The nonlinear chiroptical properties of chiral metal halide perovskite has attracted substantial attention in recent years. In order to overcome the inherent limitations of metal halide, such as high costs, potential toxicity, challenges with recycling, especially the limited laser-induced damage threshold (LDT), we have successfully constructed the first chiral metal-free anti-perovskite, with the aim of utilizing it in second harmonic generation-circular dichroism (SHG-CD). Moreover, the anti-perovskite composed entirely of small organic ions typically display a more extensive transparent window, which could contribute a high LDT.

The significance of ultrafast laser-induced energy and mass transfer at interfaces has been growing in the field of nanoscience and technology. Nevertheless, the complexity arising from non-linear and non-equilibrium optical-thermal-mechanical interactions results in intricate transitional behaviors. This complexity presents challenges when attempting to analyze these phenomena exclusively through modeling or experimentation.

Background: Prior studies have shown that energy-based devices (EBDs) over pre-injected hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers do not significantly affect clinical outcomes. However, the impact of EBDs over newly FDA-approved HA filler for improving skin smoothness is still undetermined.
Objective: To evaluate the immediate histologic changes after various popular EBDs are performed over pre-injected, newly FDA-approved intradermal HA filler.

Laser sintering of metal nanoparticles (NPs) has been widely used in flexible microelectronic device fabrication, wherein the sintered layer thickness is a key factor affecting the mechanical stability and conductivity. In this work, ultrathin flexible electronic circuits on flexible substrates with robust bonds and excellent conductivity have been fabricated through ultrafast laser-induced thickness-limited sintering of the metal NP film. When the laser fluence is below the damage threshold of the metal NP film, sintered layer thickness can be controlled by the laser parameters.
