Laser Beam Micro Welding With High Brilliant Fiber Lasers
Spatial power modulation for laser beam micro welding by superposing an oscillation movement to the feed direction is gaining more and more importance, especially for welding of difficultto-weld materials, e.g. aluminum, copper or zinc-coated steel sheets.

Nitroxide‐Mediated Photo‐Polymerization: A Swiss Army Knife for Microfluidic Design
This article illustrates the application of NMP2 to the rapid (less than 1 h) photostructuring and sealing of model structures intended for microfluidic applications. Remarkably, the careful design of resin composition allows completing these steps by simply spreading bare monomer (i.e., no added photoinitiator) on top of the bottom layer embedding ...

Fiber Laser Welding of Copper based Open Cell Foams
Porous metallic materials with cellular structures are well known to combine many physical and mechanical properties. This mix of different properties makes these systems very attractive for both structural and functional applications, depending on pore size, methodology of production and material characteristics.

Mechanical loss of laser-welded fused silica fibers [PDF]
The mechanical quality factor of a carbon dioxide laser-welded fiber was measured and compared to flame-welded fibers to determine the suitability of laser welding for attaching suspension fibers to test masses in precision experiments. The loss in the fiber was found to be limited primarily by thermoelastic damping and surface loss, rather than loss ...
