Researchers at the US National Institute of Standards & Technology, NIST have developed a compact, high-accuracy, point-of-use high-power laser power meter in the form of a folding mirror. Called ...

To effectively control increasing number and diversity of industrial tasks now performed by lasers, manufacturers must ensure that their lasers fire at the correct power. But to date, there has been ...

NIST researchers have developed a compact, high-accuracy, point-of-use high-power laser power meter in the form of a folding mirror called 'Smart Mirror,' making in-situ, real-time measurement of ...

The US military can now calibrate high-power laser systems, such as those intended to defuse unexploded mines, more quickly and easily thanks to a novel nanotube-coated power measurement device. The U ...

I signed the papers on my first house today! In celebration, I started looking for some home hardware hacks, but stumbled across this old (2003) laser power meter sensor. If you like to scare off the ...

This mirror is a force scale that relates the force of a laser shining on it to the power (i.e., the brightness) of that laser. Scientists at NIST are developing these devices to embed into ...

A group of researchers at NIST working with engineers from Colorado-based Scientech has developed a new approach to measuring laser power using a mirror and a scale. This method, which measures the ...

New silicon detectors, display and innovative circuitry have been added to the Model BC20 Scanned-Beam Laser Power Meter. This allows the handheld unit to measure the power of bar code and other ...

Reaching 2 petawatts of power, the NSF-funded ZEUS facility at the University of Michigan supports research with potential ...

Researchers have developed a smaller, faster and more sensitive laser power meter in the form of a folding mirror they call a 'smart mirror.' High-power lasers are now widely used in additive ...
