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 ...

3. Dazzler (weapon) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dazzler_(weapon)

   Dazzler (weapon) A dazzler is a non- lethal weapon which uses intense directed radiation to temporarily disorient its target with flash blindness. They can effectively deter further advances, regardless of language or cultural barriers, but can also be used for hailing and warning. [1] Targets can include electronic sensors as well as human vision.

4. Nd:YAG laser - Wikipedia

   A green laser pointer is a frequency doubled Nd:YVO 4 diode-pumped solid state laser . [48] Nd:YAG can be also made to lase at its non-principal wavelength. The line at 946 nm is typically employed in "blue laser pointer" DPSS lasers, where it is doubled to 473 nm. [49] [50] [51]

   In addition to imprisonment on federal charges, a person who aims a laser pointer at an aircraft can be hit with a civil penalty from the FAA, a fine of up to $11,000 per incident.

   The most common DPSSL in use is the 532 nm wavelength green laser pointer. A powerful (>200 mW ) 808 nm wavelength infrared GaAlAs laser diode pumps a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Nd:YAG) or a neodymium-doped yttrium orthovanadate (Nd:YVO 4 ) crystal which produces 1064 nm wavelength light from the main spectral transition of ...

7. Laser weapon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_weapon

   A laser weapon [2] is a type of directed-energy weapon that uses lasers to inflict damage. Whether they will be deployed as practical, high-performance military weapons remains to be seen. [3] [4] One of the major issues with laser weapons is atmospheric thermal blooming, which is still largely unsolved.
