4. TOPIC NAME:
Laser and it’s
application.

5. laser
 Light Amplification by
Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
Optical electronic device that generates an
intense (very narrow) beam of
single color (monochromatic) light by
pumping (amplifying) photons with
more energy through collisions with other
photons. Laser beams can travel vast
distances without dispersion and can carry
enormous amounts of energy
(100 million watts per square centimeter, and
more).
 Lasers are sources of light with a very special
properties.

6. Application of laser:
Laser are used in many various field.
 MANUFACTURING (INDUSTRY)
 MADICAL
 METROLOGY
 DATA-STORAGE
 COMMUNICATIONS
 DISPLAYS
 SPECTROSCOPY
 MICROSCOPY
 ENERGY TECHNOLOGY
 MILITARY
 SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

8.  Lasers are widely used in
manufacturing(industry), e.g. for cutting,
drilling, welding, cladding, soldering
(brazing), hardening, ablating, surface
treatment, marking, engraving,
micromachining, pulsed laser deposition,
lithography, alignment, etc.

10.  Use for the treatment of detached retinas.
 Use in performing bloodless surgery
 Use for the treatment of human and animal
cancers and skin tumtors.

12. Optical fiber communication, extensively used particularly for
long-distance optical data transmission, mostly relies on laser
light in optical glassfibers. Free-space optical communications,
e.g. for inter-satellite communications, is based on higher-
power lasers, generating collimated laser beams which
propagate over large distances with small beam divergence

14.  Data Storage
 Optical data storage e.g. in compact disks
(CDs), DVDs, Blu-ray Discs and magneto-
optical disks, nearly always relies on a laser
source, which has a high
spatial coherence and can thus be used to
address very tiny spots in the recording
medium, allowing a very high density data
storage. Another case is holography, where
the temporal coherence can also be important

15. Lunar Laser Ranging.

16.  In Lunar Laser Ranging Experiment, Laser
beams are focused through large
telescopes on Earth aimed toward the arrays,
and the time taken for the beam to be
reflected back to Earth measured to
determine the distance between the Earth and
Moon with high accuracy

18.  There are a variety of military laser applications. In
relatively few cases, lasers are used as weapons; the “laser
sword” has become popular in movies, but not in practice.
Some high-power lasers are currently developed for
potential use as directed energy weapons on the battle
field, or for destroying missiles, projectiles and mines.
 In other cases, lasers function as target designators or
laser sights (essentially laser pointers emitting visible or
invisible laser beams), or as irritating or blinding (normally
not directly destroying) countermeasures e.g. against
heat-seeking anti-aircraft missiles. It is also possible to
blind soldiers temporarily or permanently with laser
beams, although the latter is forbidden by rules of war.
 There are also many laser applications which are not
specific for military use, e.g. in areas such as range
finding, LIDAR, and optical communications.
