A Flat Top laser beam can be described as a zone in which the irradiance, or radiance, is constant, quickly followed by a sharp fall to zero level at the edges of the zone. Thus, the energy of the Flat Top laser, when it comes to a focus, is said to be confined to a specific area.
This radiative behavior is optimal for almost all industrial processes involving a laser. For instance, a surgeon using a laser to treat human tissue needs to limit the affected area as much as possible. The same applies to materials processing with lasers where...

A Problem Worth Solving
In recent times, there have been a growing rate of emigration of medical practitioners from Nigeria to developed countries. Annually, it is estimated that 2000 doctors leave the country to practice in developed societies. US, UK and Canada are the popular countries of destination.
There are about 72,000 medical doctors registered with the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) but only approximately 35,000 are currently practicing in the country.
Consequently, the ratio of doctor per population is approximately 1:6000 for a population of over 200 million in the country. This don’t tally with WHO recommendation of 1...
At least one in every 125 to 150 children in Nigeria is on the autistic spectrum, that’s equivalent to around 600,000 children. If your child has autism, you will know just how hard it can be and sometimes every day can feel like a struggle for them.
Many children have difficulty with communication, understanding emotions and just being able to cope with the noisy and often unpredictable world around them.
Fortunately, today’s modern digital world has seen a number of technological innovations developed to enhance the lives of kids with autism and help them to navigate the complexities of our world.

The pharma industry has begun understanding the capability of working together with innovation and is overwhelmed by a portion of the top spenders on pharmaceutical R&D from the U.S. This incorporates pro organizations, for example, Pfizer, Merk, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celgene corp and so forth., every one of them contributing billions of dollars each quarter. Be it in Augmented reality, Artificial intelligence (through chatbot or voice bot) or a simple mobile app development.
On similar lines, due to the accessibility of sophisticated technology and a well-created framework for R&D, Singapore has risen as one of Asia's most exceptional center points for...
History:
Python has been around for more than 28 years. It’s an interpreted, high-level, general-purpose programming language.
Even though it is one of the oldest programming languages, It hasn’t been particularly popular amongst the developer communities until recently.
Why wasn’t it popular?
The singular factor behind its “Non Popularity” has been its speed. Ask any student/beginner to choose between Python and ‘Java or C’, nine out of ten students will choose the later due to the speed factor & their theoretical knowledge.
The difference in speed is because Python is interpreted and Java is compiled.

Visible light communications (VLC) is an emerging field within the communications sector that focuses on providing a medium in which data can be transmitted using a part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is visible to the human eye.
Numerous work in optical communications has already been created. However, all of them focus on the transmission of light using fiber and free-space, which already pose large issues in infrastructure development.
With the use of the visible spectrum and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), VLC forgoes the usual problems with data connectivity and is able to provide even higher rates for the transmission of data.
