The optical laser has grown to a $10 billion global technology market since it was invented in 1960, and has led to Nobel prizes for Art Ashkin for developing optical tweezing and Gerard Mourou and ...

From the first generations of computers to what we use now, the sizes have gotten progressively smaller. Just like these computers, there are still so many smart electronics that feel bigger than ...

The microsphere, levitated by the dual beam optical tweezer (green), is driven by the active optomechanical system (red) to generate nonlinear phonon lasers (coloured waves). Meanwhile, the injected ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: Surface acoustic waves (SAW) can be found in a variety of technologies, and are crucially used as filters for smartphones when receiving radio ...

A group of scientists has unveiled a revolutionary chip that emits controlled vibrations, called surface acoustic waves (SAWs). Unlike conventional lasers that release light, this "phonon laser" ...

Patent US 11,923,101 B2 describes an optical tweezer phonon laser system and method designed to modulate the mechanical vibrations of an optically levitated mechanical oscillator to produce coherence.

The phonon laser boosts the phononics to coherent regime with wider frequency range, thus can achieve higher accuracy and further broaden the application scenarios, such as lesion identification of ...
