Laser-induced backside wet etching of silica glass and sapphire plates was performed by the excitation of a liquid with a ns-pulsed UV excimer laser. Well-defined micropatterns were fabricated without ...

Random laser action with coherent feedback is realized in ZnO-SiO/sub 2/ composite films, which consists of ZnO clusters embedded in SiO/sub 2/ dielectric matrix prepared by sol-gel technique. The ...

Chemical dynamics of an ozone (O3) pulse-photolytic reaction in aqueous solutions were studied with pump–probe transient far-ultraviolet (FUV) absorption spectroscopy. With a nanosecond pulse laser of ...

Recent studies have demonstrated the applicability of the “single particle” mode in laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry to map and size particles simultaneously. The transport ...
