报告内容简介：
Femtosecond lasers have recently become extensively used for industrial materials processing applications and precision matching. However, the development of robust, high average power femtosecond lasers has also proven an enabling technology for making coherent light at very short wavelengths using the high-harmonic generation (HHG) process. Although HHG was originally considered an atomic physics curiosity when first observed ¼ century ago, advances in technology have made it the first truly practical means to implement a tabletop-scale “x-ray laser.” Furthermore, the application of these sources for materials characterization and nanoimaging are becoming increasingly relevant for industrial and commercial applications. KMLabs’ goal is to commercialize both the source technology and industrial and scientific applications such as ultrahigh-resolution nanoimaging in support of next-generation nanoelectronics manufacturing.
