Material Removal by Arc Ablation
Arc ablation holds the promise of fast, low-cost metal removal at faster rates than laser, plasma and electron-beam methods and without the tooling and fixturing forces of conventional machining. Preliminary results show surface finishes in the tens of microns range at high material removal rates (MRRs) by adaptive control of arc voltage: up to 97 mm3/sec at 4 kW. These results far exceed the c...
متن کاملSubsurface ablation of atherosclerotic plaque using ultrafast laser pulses.
We perform subsurface ablation of atherosclerotic plaque using ultrafast pulses. Excised mouse aortas containing atherosclerotic plaque were ablated with ultrafast near-infrared (NIR) laser pulses. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) was used to observe the ablation result, while the physical damage was inspected in histological sections. We characterize the effects of incident pulse energy on s...
متن کاملStudy of laser ablation using nano-second laser pulses
In this paper, the laser ablation process based on the irradiation of nanosecond pulsed lasers on a copper target surface in the presence of Helium gas is studied. The dynamical behaviors of the generated plasma in the helium gas and evaporated copper at the atmospheric pressure are examined using a laser pulse, laser wavelength of and intensity of 7×1010W/cm2. A one-dimensional thermal model ...
متن کاملUltrafast laser ablation for targeted atherosclerotic plaque removal
Coronary artery disease, the main cause of heart disease, develops as immune cells and lipids accumulate into plaques within the coronary arterial wall. As a plaque grows, the tissue layer (fibrous cap) separating it from the blood flow becomes thinner and increasingly susceptible to rupturing and causing a potentially lethal thrombosis. The stabilization and/or treatment of atherosclerotic pla...
متن کاملUltrafast Optical Pulses
Ultrafast pulses on the femtosecond time scale allow fundamental processes, such as atomic transitions, to be measured. To investigate the formation of optical pulses, an argon ion laser was used to pump a titanium-doped sapphire laser. The mode-locked output of this laser was measured with a spectrometer and an autocorrelator to find a frequency pulse width of σω = 86 ± 3 rad/ps and a temporal...
