Can't tell whether the phys.org story was written by a human or a 
machine*, but whoever wrote it didn't understand the material s/he or it 
was writing about.

I'm sure I don't know enough about laser stuff, but from what I do know, 
this could be pure snake oil.

* Too many grammatical errors to be a machine?
