2. Nova (laser) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nova_(laser)

   The plans called for the installation of two main banks of laser beam lines, one in the existing Nova beam line room, and the other in the older Shiva building next door, extending through its laser bay and target area into an upgraded Nova target area.

3. Shiva laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva_laser

   The Shiva laser was a powerful 20-beam infrared neodymium glass (silica glass) laser built at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in 1977 for the study of inertial confinement fusion (ICF) and long-scale-length laser-plasma interactions.

4. List of laser types - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

   This is a list of laser types, their operational wavelengths, and their applications. Thousands of kinds of laser are known, but most of them are used only for specialized research.

5. Inertial confinement fusion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_confinement_fusion

   An Inertial confinement fusion target, which was a foam filled cylindrical target with machined perturbations, being compressed by the Nova Laser. This shot was done in 1995. The image shows the compression of the target, as well as the growth of the Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities.

6. Titanium-sapphire laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium-sapphire_laser

   The Ti:sapphire crystal is the bright red light source on the left. The green light is from the pump diode. Titanium-sapphire lasers (also known as Ti:sapphire lasers, Ti:Al2O3 lasers or Ti:sapphs) are tunable lasers which emit red and near-infrared light in the range from 650 to 1100 nanometers. These lasers are mainly used in scientific ...

7. Trident laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trident_laser

   The 200TW shortpulse ultra high-intensity laser system is currently a world record holder in ion acceleration energy with Target Normal Sheath Acceleration mechanism, [4] producing protons at 58.5 MeV from a flat-foil, [5] beating the record of the NOVA Petawatt laser back in 1999; [6] and 67.5 MeV protons from micro-cone targets.

8. LULI2000 - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LULI2000

   LULI2000 is a high-power laser system dedicated to scientific research. It is located in LULI laboratory, at École Polytechnique in France. The main application of this type of laser is related to the very high energy fluxes obtained after focusing onto tiny focal spots, from micrometers to hundreds of micrometers in diameter.

9. Diode-pumped solid-state laser - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diode-pumped_solid-state_laser

   A diode-pumped solid-state laser ( DPSSL) is a solid-state laser made by pumping a solid gain medium, for example, a ruby or a neodymium-doped YAG crystal, with a laser diode . DPSSLs have advantages in compactness and efficiency over other types, and high power DPSSLs have replaced ion lasers and flashlamp-pumped lasers in many scientific ...

10. Ruby laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruby_laser

    A ruby laser is a solid-state laser that uses a synthetic ruby crystal as its gain medium. The first working laser was a ruby laser made by Theodore H. "Ted" Maiman at Hughes Research Laboratories on May 16, 1960.

11. Neodymium-doped yttrium orthovanadate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium-doped_yttrium...

    Neodymium-doped yttrium orthovanadate. Neodymium-doped yttrium orthovanadate ( Nd:YVO4) is a crystalline material formed by adding neodymium ions to yttrium orthovanadate. It is commonly used as an active laser medium for diode-pumped solid-state lasers. It comes as a transparent blue-tinted material.
