The reaction kinetics of energetic materials is a key factor in determining the detonation characteristics and safety. The complexity of the reaction process and the lack of experimental means remain ...

Fig. 1 (a) Confocal optical microscopy image of LSFL prefabricated on silicon surface. (b) Experiment setup of the collinear pump-probe imaging system. (c) Spectra of the white-light pulse with (red ...

The ultrashort pump laser pulse interacts with a 10 nm-thick diamond-like carbon foil (DLC). The interaction region is illuminated with a probe laser pulse with a large optical spectrum, whose various ...

With the help of computer simulations, engineers can play with any combination of microstructures to see how certain materials can transform, for instance, into sound-focusing acoustic lenses or ...
