Cascade-Gain-Switching for Generating 3.5-$\mu$ m Nanosecond Pulses From Monolithic Fiber Lasers

IEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
We propose a novel laser configuration that can output 3.5- $\mu$m nanosecond laser pulses based on a simple and monolithic fiber structure. Cascade-gain-switching (CGS) converts the wavelength of nanosecond pulses from 1.55 to 3.5 $\mu$m by two ...

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...
