High-power blue laser at LPT
A few weeks ago, a high-power blue laser (P = 4 kW, λ = 445 nm) from Laserline was successfully installed at the Institute of Photonic Technologies. This system will be used to investigate the relationships between laser wavelength and process characteristics for e.g., the laser welding of copper. As a result, we now have […]

New laser in use
Recently, our laboratory was equipped with the Amplitude Tangor 300 IR, a versatile femtosecond laser that can operate in the femto- to picosecond range. With its adjustable pulse duration and high power, it enables us to carry out high-precision investigations in laser material processing and laser microprocessing. The ability to switch between different time ranges […]

Custom-made 3D-printed medication
The research focus of Sebastian-Paul Kopp is laser-based 3D printing from polymer powders. He uses a technique similar to a common laser printer to individually deposit the powder onto the laser bed. In his subsequent work, he successfully adapted his setup to 3D-print custom-made medication. As a proof of concept, he fabricated several pills containing […]
