Using a nanosecond - pulse laser, Hall developed a method to slice 11 identically spaced root samples per second.
Materials researchers at North Carolina State University have developed a technique that allows them to integrate graphene, graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) onto silicon substrates at room temperature by
using nanosecond pulsed laser annealing.

nanosecond lasers — lasers that pulse light at one - billionth of a second — are
used to record information on DVDs and Blu - ray disks, by driving the material from one state to another,» explains Giovanni Vanacore, a postdoctoral scholar and an author on the study.
The team
used interferometric ultrafast velocimetry and pyrometry to characterize the optical properties of the shocked compressed water and determine its thermodynamic properties during the brief 10 - 20
nanosecond duration of the experiment, before pressure release waves decompressed the sample and vaporized the diamonds and the water.
