For several years now, scientists have been using lasers to control the properties of matter at extremely fast rates: during one optical cycle of a light wave. But because these changes occur on the ...

Such lasers are capable of forming stable standing wave states over large areas, resulting in the emission of high-power, high-quality beams. The PCSEL was invented in 1999 by Professor Noda at Kyoto ...
