More than 40 applications have integrated infrared solid state light sources. Some of these applications are expected to drive the IR LED and LD markets to thrive in the next five years!
In 3D printing, due to the expansion of the heating material and the shrinkage of the cold material, residual stress accumulates in the part during printing, and the resulting force deforms the part and causes cracks, which weaken or tear the part, especially It is in metal. Researchers at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and the University of California at Davis are using laser diodes to solve this problem. The diode is a high-power laser borrowed from the LLNL National Ignition (NIF), which quickly heats the printed layer during construction. Its research was successfully published in Additive Manufacturing.
Researchers in Japan have proven that long-term elusive laser diodes based on organic semiconductors are indeed feasible, paving the way for further expansion of lasers in applications such as biosensing, displays, healthcare and optical communications.
