For the first time, scientists at the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) have succeeded in measuring zinc samples at a pressure of 600 bar using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. They were able to show that the LIBS system developed at the LZH is suitable for use in the deep sea at water depths of up to…
Lasers Repair Defects in Fiber-Reinforced Plastics
Fiber-reinforced plastics (FRP) are frequently used in the aeronautic and automobile industry. However, the repair of workpieces made of these composite materials is often less profitable than exchanging the part. In order to increase the lifetime of FRP parts and to make them more eco-efficient, the Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V. (LZH) and the Apodius GmbH…
