A rendering of an infrared laser striking a flame. Husker researchers have shown how a laser can modify chemical reactions taking place within a flame, allowing them to coat materials with performance-enhancing chemicals while avoiding an unwanted side effect that complicates the construction of semiconductors and other microelectronic components.
