Center for Laser Applications

Laser Materials Processing

Laser materials processing has been a cornerstone of CLA for a number of years.  This year we formed the Center for Advanced Photonic Processing with UT Knoxville and Oak Ridge National Laboratory to facilitate joint research in materials processing.  Our collaborations with industry and other academic institutions continues to be strong.  Efforts in this area will be critical in developing materials science research at UTSI.
