LANL News
LANL Licenses Polarization Cryptography Technique
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Oct. 1, 2014 — Quantum encryption technology based on random photon polarization could give ordinary people access to truly secure commerce, banking, communications and data transfer. Developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory, the technology has been licensed to...
Curiosity Surpasses 100,000 Laser Zaps
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Dec. 9, 2013 — The laser instrument aboard NASA’s Curiosity rover has surpassed its 100,000th shot on Mars, the space agency reported last week. Designed to fire 1 million shots, the ChemCam zaps rocks and dust with a high-power laser to determine their...
Nanoscale Engineering Advances QD-LEDs
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Oct. 25, 2013 — New research aims to improve quantum dot LEDs (QD-LEDs) by using a new generation of the nanosized, engineered semiconductor particles specifically tailored to have reduced wasteful charge-carrier interactions that compete with the production of...
Laser-Driven Neutrons Could Thwart Nuclear Smugglers
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., June 11, 2013 — A single short-pulse laser-driven neutron source could make searching for nuclear materials smuggled in shipping containers much easier, an international experiment has demonstrated.
Atoms hollowed by laser form novel plasma
YORK, England – A highly unusual plasma composed of hollow atoms has been created using one of the world’s most powerful lasers. The surprising result shows that a little-explored region of physics is now accessible through the unprecedented intensities being...

Atoms Hollowed by Laser Form Novel Plasma
YORK, England, April 1, 2013 — A highly unusual plasma composed of hollow atoms has been created using one of the world’s most powerful lasers. The surprising result shows that a little-explored region of physics is now accessible through the unprecedented intensities being...
Mars Rover’s Laser Zaps First Target
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Aug. 22, 2012 — NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity fired its laser for the first time on Mars this week, hitting a fist-sized rock with 30 pulses, each delivering more than 1 million watts of power. The achievement was just the beginning of a two-year mission that...
Laser Breaks Neutron Beam Record
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., July 12, 2012 — The largest neutron beam ever achieved using a short-pulse laser could lead to more advanced materials measurement.
Laser-Produced Proton Beams Open New Research Areas
LIVERMORE, Calif., Dec. 8, 2011 — Recent proton beam experiments using high-intensity lasers have unveiled a new way to heat material and create novel states of matter in the laboratory. This advance could lead to medical applications and even offer insight into planetary science....
QD ‘Blinking’ Mystery Unravels
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Nov. 21, 2011 — A significantly better understanding of why quantum dots blink, and how this blinking can be controlled and even completely suppressed, should lead to many sought-after applications, such as single-particle tracking, novel LEDs and single-photon...
Acoustical Waves Tapped for Metamaterials
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., April 7, 2011 — A very simple benchtop technique that uses the force of acoustical waves to create a variety of 3-D structures will benefit the rapidly expanding field of metamaterials and its myriad applications. Metamaterials are artificial materials...
Next Rover $75M Over Budget
PASADENA, Calif., Sept. 18, 2007 -- In light of a Mars Science Laboratory budget overrun estimated at $75 million, NASA has cut off funding for some instruments, capped funding for others or eliminated them from the mission entirely. Among those no longer receiving space agency money...
New Terahertz Device Created
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., March 15, 2007 -- A device for manipulating terahertz (THz) radiation created at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) could be the basis for novel electronics and photonics applications such as new imaging methods and communication technologies. In research...
Quantum Encryption Codes Sent Over Record Distances
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Sept. 26, 2006 -- Using an innovative sensor for detecting single photons, the smallest particles of light, scientists have set two significant distance records for distributing "keys" (or codes) for quantum encryption, the most secure method known for protecting the...
Nanotechnology Facilities Near Completion
Sep 19, 2005 — ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., Sept. 19 -— A two-story-high, 450-ft-long wall surface hewn from rock -— reminiscent of the 1000-year-old stonework at New Mexico’s Chaco Canyon archaeological site —- cuts across the three laboratory wings of the new core...
