Femtosecond laser
A femtosecond laser emits incredibly precise pulses of light lasting just a few quadrillionths of a second (femtoseconds). This ultra-fast timing allows it to target materials with exceptional accuracy, minimizing surrounding damage. It’s widely used in fields like laser eye surgery, where it gently reshapes corneal tissue, and in scientific research for studying rapid molecular processes. The laser's ability to deliver such short pulses enables precise control over light-matter interactions, making it a powerful tool for delicate engineering, medical procedures, and advanced material processing.
