Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy LIBS is considered one of the most convenient and efficient analytical techniques for trace elemental analysis in gases, solids, and liquids. LIBS spectra obtained by the Mars Curiosity Rover have confirmed that our sister planet could have harbored life Combustion Combustion researchers rely on laser-based optical diagnostic techniques as essential tools in understanding and improving the combustion process. Nanotechnology Nanotechnology helps scientists and engineers create faster electronics as well as ultrastrong and extremely light structural materials. FLIM - Fluorescence Lifetime Imaging Microscopy FLIM encompasses several techniques for mapping the spatial distribution of excited-state lifetimes of emitting molecular species with nanosecond and microsecond temporal resolution. Dynamic Neutron Radiography Neutron radiography offers an excellent complement to x-ray imaging for a diverse range of nondestructive investigations |
