  2. Laser pointer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_pointer

    A laser pointer or laser pen is a (typically battery-powered) handheld device that uses a laser diode to emit a narrow low-power visible laser beam (i.e. coherent light) to highlight something of interest with a small bright colored spot. The small width of the beam and the low power of typical laser pointers make the beam itself invisible in a ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_applications

    Laser pointers in different colours. Many scientific, military, medical and commercial laser applications have been developed since the invention of the laser in 1958. The coherency, high monochromaticity, and ability to reach extremely high powers are all properties which allow for these specialized applications.

    Nd:YAG laser with lid open showing frequency-doubled 532 nm green light. Nd:YAG laser rod. Nd:YAG ( neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet; Nd:Y3Al5O12) is a crystal that is used as a lasing medium for solid-state lasers. The dopant, neodymium in the +3 oxidation state, Nd (III), typically replaces a small fraction (1%) of the yttrium ions in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser

    The word laser is an anacronym that originated as an acronym for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. [1] [2] The first laser was built in 1960 by Theodore Maiman at Hughes Research Laboratories, based on theoretical work by Charles H. Townes and Arthur Leonard Schawlow.
