LASERS NEWS
Nanoparticle Lasing Innovation Reduces Tissue Damage SYDNEY, Dec. 4, 2020 — Researchers from the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) have demonstrated how a microcavity laser can produce energy-saving and user-safe laser emissions requiring low pump power. The work has implications for nanoscale biological applications. As biosensing and bioimaging research seeks to look deep inside tissue to the intracellular level, miniaturizing laser devices poses significant challenges for these nanoscale biological applications.
