Laser hardening is becoming a consolidated process in different industrial sectors such as
the automotive industry or in the die and mold industry. The key to ensure the success in this …

In this work, a robot-assisted laser cleaning system is presented that allows the automatic
processing of 3D objects with arbitrary geometry. The system is based on the integration of a …

A novel method for laser processing freeform surfaces is proposed and demonstrated in this
article. The method employs empirical data on the 3D limitations of a given laser process …

Monitoring laser ablation when using high power lasers can be challenging due to plasma
obscuring the view of the machined sample. Whilst the appearance of the generated plasma …

Product piracy impacts wide areas of the global economy resulting in multi-billion dollar
losses per year. Therefore, product protection technologies are required to produce security …

This study focuses on the development of a strategy to produce periodic structures with a
variable spatial period for increasing the homogeneity of structural colours by means of …

Soft photonic crystals are periodic nanostructures that have attracted much attention for their
applications in sensors, owing to their tunable structural colors in response to external …

To achieve an enhanced local controllable laser patterning for polymers, the composite
powder of graphene/polystyrene was successfully designed and prepared. The design idea …

In this study, a three-dimensional (3D) in-situ laser machining system integrating laser
measurement and machining was built using a 3D galvanometer scanner equipped with a …
