SEMICONDUCTOR VS. HELIUM-NEON: A DIRECTIONAL DEBATE ON BEAM DIVERGENCE AND WAVELENGTH
Alemayehu Tadesse Gebremariam
The term "laser" stands for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation," representing the first device capable of amplifying light waves themselves. Laser light exhibits spatially coherent, narrow, low-divergence beams when its photons have identical frequency, phase, and direction, making it highly coherent. Due to their impact on basic research and various technological applications, lasers hold significant importance in the fields of science and technology. They find widespread use in consumer goods, music players, laser printers, product identification scanners, and industrial applications like metal cutting, welding, hole drilling, and marking, along with medical surgeries and scientific research. Laser light covers...
