LASER PHOTONICS AS AN INDUSTRY – GENERAL

Image
Indeed, the invention of the laser in 1960 was a pivotal moment, marking the start of the modern era of optics or photonics. This technology has since found diverse applications in various fields. During this modern era, photonic technologies have been used in a wide variety of applications including high - speed transmission, data and image storage, process and inspection monitoring, lithography, microscopy, medical procedures, calibration, spectroscopy, surveillance technologies, laser weaponry, image projection, and importantly lighting. Absolutely, photonics technologies have made substantial contributions across a wide array of industries, impacting telecommunications, semiconductors, computers, manufacturing, medicine, entertainment, and defense. Their versatility and applicability have played a pivotal role in advancing and enhancing various aspects of these industries.

LASER PHOTONICS – UNDERSTANDING THE BASICS

Image
“Laser” is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. Photonics explores the characteristics and uses of photons, focusing on their role in information transfer. Practical applications include laser technologies for tasks such as cleaning, cutting, engraving, and marking in our daily lives. The development from maser to laser marked a significant advancement in technology. Charles Hard Townes' work laid the foundation, leading to the creation of the first optical oscillator in 1957, and subsequently, the term "laser" emerged. The application for a US patent and its eventual granting in 1960 solidified the breakthrough in the field of optics and paved the way for diverse applications of lasers.

LASER TECHNOLOGY FOR DIAMOND CUTTING PROCESS     The history of diamond processing and the development of laser technology indeed intersect at various points, leading to significant advancements in diamond cutting and various industries. Diamond processing has a long history, dating back centuries. Traditional diamond cutting involved labor-intensive methods, and it wasn't until the invention of the diamond saw in the 15th century that significant progress was made in shaping diamonds. However, these methods were limited in precision and speed. In the 20th century, the emergence of laser technology marked a turning point in diamond processing. Albert Einstein's work in the early 20th century, particularly his theoretical groundwork on stimulated emission of radiation, laid the foundation for the development of lasers. His concepts were essential in understanding the principles of how lasers function. In 1960, Theodore H. Maiman created the first functional laser at

HUMANKIND VS. MOSQUITOES - Laser ‘PHOTONIC FENCE’ to protect from Mosquitoes

Image
Mankind’s greatest enemy is tiny, brown, and very hard to catch. But now researchers have developed a new weapon which they hope will finally give them the edge they need to defeat the aggressors. It’s a battle which has been raging for centuries – an army of blood – sucking creatures just six millimeters long on the attack against enormous opponents. A single bite from this insect can be lethal, and some 6, 00,000 people die every year as a result. The enemy is the malaria carrying Anopheles female mosquito, and the tropical disease it transmits is often fatal, especially in the developing countries of sub-Saharan Africa. Without treatment, malaria can kill in a matter of days. The only way to stay safe is to avoid being bitten. But the only means of achieving this are mosquito nets and insecticides. Both of these defenses can only be used indoors, and the aggressors quickly build up resistance to the chemicals. But we have now bright ray of hope from new invention by US research fu

IMMORTAL MAHABHARAT – Lasers are making us virtually forever...! અમર મહાભારત - લેસર આપણને હંમેશા માટે વાસ્તવિક બનાવે છે..!

Eternal life is a dream that people have long shared. Even Lord Krishna and Arjun – the heroes of Mahabharat and the Kurukshetra war envied the god’s immortality. The reason we know that is because someone took the trouble to transfer those texts and information to the various new media that emerged over the centuries: First papyrus and carving on stone and clay tablets, parchment on leather, then paper. Nowadays, of course, we have digital copies of the Mahabharat on DVD, Pen drive and Hard Drives. But for How Long? “Nothing Lasts Forever” This phrase equally applies to the dilemma facing data and texts storage. If one day the Earth ceases to exist, there will be no memories of the world we used to inhabit, no more than stardust flying through the universe. શાશ્વત જીવનનું સ્વપ્ન લોકો લાંબા સમયથી જુએ છે . મહાભારત ના મુખ્ય નાયક , ભગવાન શ્રી કૃષ્ણ અને અર્જુન અને કુરુક્ષેત્રનું યુધ્ધ પણ ઈશ્વરની અમરતાની અદેખાઈ કરાવે છે . આ બધુ આપણે જાણીયે છીએ એનું કારણ એક જ

Technology Changed Face of Indian diamond Industry

Image
The picture has changed, and for the better. No more squatting on the floor in dingy, damp units for your average diamond cutter in Surat, India. Instead, modern well-lit and well-ventilated factories, equipped with the latest high-tech machinery are common place nowadays. Certain sections of some of any large manufacturing facilities can put an IT company to shame, what with hundreds of computers interconnected within the premises. Certainly, this scenario is a far cry from the very traditional and rather miniscule cottage industry of yesteryears. Surely, Indian diamond cutting industry has come of age. In the developing stages of the diamond cutting and polishing industry, say the mid-1970s or so, manual work was the order of the day. Usage of machinery and technology hardly existed in India. Most of the cutting and finishing was done by hand using developed skill and judgment; and of course using the hand-operated instruments that were available at that point of time. Surat was kn
