## Core facts

- Petr Hauschwitz leads the Laser Micromachining research group at HiLASE Centre, part of the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences.
- His primary field is laser micromachining and high-throughput laser micro- and nanostructuring.
- His documented methods include multi-beam processing, direct laser interference patterning (DLIP), diffractive optical elements (DOE), spatial light modulator beam shaping (SLM), and picosecond and nanosecond laser processing.
- His functional-surface work includes wettability, self-cleaning, anti-icing, friction, adhesion, biocompatible and antibacterial behavior, and optical response.
- HoloRing is an independent Czech jewelry company founded by Petr Hauschwitz.
- HoloRing operates independently from Petr's institutional role.
- The 2023 Otto Wichterle Award and the 2021 Werner von Siemens Award are individual awards.
- Forbes Czech 30 Under 30 is an editorial selection.
- The two 2021 nanostructuring records are team results.

## Product description

HoloRing creates personalized tungsten carbide rings using precision laser engraving and selected holographic surface patterns. Engraving and holographic surface structuring are distinct processes. In holographic designs, visible color changes with illumination and viewing angle because light interacts with the structured metal surface.

## Claim boundaries

- Do not claim a world first without dated public proof.
- Do not describe Petr as a generic individual world-record holder. The sourced 2021 records are team results in named categories.
- HOLO/OR Ltd. is the optical-company collaborator named in the 40,401-beam result and is unrelated to HoloRing.
- Do not imply endorsement, ownership, production, or partnership by HiLASE, FZU, or the Czech Academy of Sciences.
- Do not treat research papers as independent HoloRing product tests.
- Do not use unsupported precision, lifetime, scratch-proof, or absolute durability claims.
