Lasers are essential for several sectors in the world and have a great range of applications as well. One of the biggest sectors that lasers have found their importance in is manufacturing. This is because the level of accuracy that a laser can achieve is much greater than that of any other physical tool. It is believed that in theory, this level of precision could be taken further, in turn, bringing to life, a new generation of technologies. However, there are few hurdles that need to be overcome first. A good starting point for improving laser precision would be if a better feedback could be obtained on the subject of interaction that occurs between a laser and material. This might help in bringing better control and less uncertainty in the actions of a production laser that require cutting and etching.  This problem has not been solved hitherto and has been rather difficult to tackle.

A huge breakthrough has been made in the Laser Technology Market as for the first time; researchers have managed to acquire data on the interaction between a laser and material. This would greatly benefit the market as the technology is not only economical but might also vastly improve the precision with which items are cut or etched through lasers. The newly development would have significant positive implications in several sectors of laboratories, commerce and industries.

 Tens or hundreds of readings are needed in order to measure how far into a surface a laser has gone to cut a material. This comes on to be a significant hurdle against fast, automated laser-based production systems. To counter this obstacle, team devised a more innovative method for determining and predicting the depth of hole made by the laser, which only needs a single observation instead of several. This discovery might be an important lead towards making the controllability of laser processing more efficient in the future.

The continuous experiments of this sort led the researchers towards the fluence of a laser pulse. It is basically the optical energy that the pulse transports over a given area. As the basis for the test, laser apparatus was used to make a hole on sapphire, the camera was able to directly record the distribution of fluence of laser pulse. After this, a laser microscope took measures of the hole shape. Through usage of modern numerical methods and superimposing the two results, the team ended up with large and reliable data set that might have the ability to tell the relation between fluence and hole depth.

Researchers are optimistic that their new method could be efficient enough to provide big data for machine learning and new numerical simulation method. This could improve the precision and controllability of laser in the manufacturing sector.
