Applications of Laser and Maser: LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation and MASER stands for Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. A LASER is a MASER that works with higher frequency photons in the ultraviolet or visible light spectrum. Properties of Laser: The important features possessed by the laser beam are- Monochromatic Nature: The laser beam is extremely monochromatic i.e., it consists of radiations of possessing the same wavelength and frequency. Directionality: Lasers emit radiation in a highly directional, collimated beam with a low angle of divergence. Beam Coherence: One of the characteristics of stimulated … Continue reading Applications Of Laser And Maser
