Starting with the first experiments on laser-CVD about 30 years ago, the development of
laser-chemical processing will be reviewed up to the present status. This includes material …

Poly [2-methoxy-5-(2′-ethylhexyloxy)-1, 4-(1-cyanovinylene)-phenylene](MEH-CN-PPV)
thin films were deposited using resonant infrared matrix-assisted pulsed laser evaporation …

Structural optimization of light-emitting polymer, or organic semiconductor, thin films
deposited by tabletop 2.9 mum resonant infrared matrix-assisted pulsed evaporation (RIR …

A unique and distinct approach to unipolar, intraband transitions appropriate for room-
temperature, mid-and long-wave-infrared (IR) photodetection is to use active regions …

Conducting polymers (CP) have received great attention in both academic and industrial
areas in recent years. They exhibit unique characteristics (electrical conductivity, solution …

Resonant infrared (RIR) laser ablation of two model polymer systems is studied. A tunable
free-electron laser (FEL) operating in the mid-infrared is used to resonantly excite vibrational …

Thermoelectric materials can convert waste heat to electricity without moving parts.
Extensive research into improving the efficiency of inorganic thermoelectric materials has …

Lasers can be used to fabricate thin extended films by condensing on a substrate surface
the material that is ablated from a target under the action of laser light. Depending on the …

[Infrared laser deposition] The first plot type of our IR laser deposition system appeared
around in the early 2000s, whose deposition is based on the thermal process. At that time …

We investigate the phenomenon of resonant-infrared laser ablation of polymers using
polystyrene as a model material. Ablation is initiated by a picosecond free-electron laser …
