Ultra-high temperature ceramics are materials capable of withstanding temperatures exceeding 2,000 degrees Celsius (3,632 degrees Fahrenheit). Because they can endure such high temperatures, these ...

Spacecraft and nuclear reactors rely on ceramics that can withstand temperatures above 2,000 °C. But the traditional process to make these specialty ceramics requires heating the raw materials in a ...

Researchers have demonstrated a new technique that uses lasers to create ceramics that can withstand ultra-high temperatures, with applications ranging from nuclear power technologies to spacecraft ...

The ultrahigh-powered fiber laser has started to reshuffle the competitive game in metal fabrication. What was once purely in ...

A single strand fiber laser emits more than 1kW of continuous wave power. Although fiber lasers that generate higher powers have already been demonstrated, they rely on combining the output from a ...

Alumina ceramic (Al2O3) is used to manufacture many items including medical prostheses, ballistic armour, laser tubes and circuit boards. Its popularity is due to its strength, durability, corrosion ...

Scientists were able to use the data from a fiber optic cable and a sensitive measuring device to “image” the Mendocino ...
