Medical Industry
Because FEL's have highly tunable wavelengths They can be used in surgery and to target certain types of organic matter in a way that is less harmful to surrounding cells |
 |
Aviation Industry
During the fabrication process, FEL's can be used to strengthen aviation airframes. This allows for lighter and stronger aircrafts with existing materials. |
