Bulk Scattering Approximations for Collimated Light Transmitted through Paper
(University of Waterloo, 2009-01-21)Paper is a complex fibrous material whose production involves substantial amounts of natural and industrial resources. To reduce its manufacturing costs, the pulp and paper industry often employs optical technology such ... -
Characterisation and Optimization of Ultrashort Laser Pulses
(University of Waterloo, 2003)The ultrafast optical regime is defined, as it applies to laser pulses, along with a brief introduction to pulse generation and characterisation technologies. A more extensive description of our particular amplified ... -
Fiber Laser Welding of Advanced High Strength Steels
(University of Waterloo, 2013-08-01)Fiber laser welding (FLW) was used to join advanced high strength steel (AHSS) and high strength steel (HSS); specifically two dual-phase (DP) steels, with ultimate tensile strengths above 980 MPa and with different ... -
Intense laser field ionization of atom and molecular ion
(University of Waterloo, 2008-01-24)In order to understand how does the intense laser interact with matter we first of all study the ionization process. In this highly nonlinear region the conventional perturbation theory will fail to predict the experimental ...
