Ti:Sapphire Laser Drives Accelerator on Chip
STANFORD, Calif., Oct. 1, 2013 — An advance that uses commercial lasers and low-cost, mass-production techniques could set the stage for a new generation of "tabletop" particle accelerators that are less expensive for use in science and medicine. Current state-of-the-art accelerators use microwaves to boost the energy of electrons. Researchers have sought more economical alternatives, and this new technique, which uses ultrafast lasers to drive the accelerator, is a leading candidate. A team that included scientists f...
