  2. List of laser types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

    Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).

  3. Argon fluoride laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argon_fluoride_laser

    The argon fluoride laser (ArF laser) is a particular type of excimer laser, [1] which is sometimes (more correctly) called an exciplex laser. With its 193-nanometer wavelength, it is a deep ultraviolet laser, which is commonly used in the production of semiconductor integrated circuits, eye surgery, micromachining, and scientific research.

  4. Ion laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_laser

    A krypton laser is an ion laser using ions of the noble gas krypton as its gain medium.The laser pumping is done by an electrical discharge.Krypton lasers are widely used in scientific research, and in commercial uses, when the krypton is mixed with argon, it creates a "white-light" lasers, useful for laser light shows.

  5. Blue laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_laser

    argon-ion lasers at 458 and 488 nm [5] Lasers emitting wavelengths below 445 nm appear violet, but are nonetheless also called blue lasers. Violet light's 405 nm short wavelength, on the visible spectrum, causes fluorescence in some chemicals, like radiation in the ultraviolet ("black light") spectrum (wavelengths less than 400 nm).

    The argon-ionized laser (wavelength: 488–514 nm) has since become the preferred laser for the treatment of retinal detachment. The carbon dioxide laser was developed by Kumar Patel and others in the early 1960s and is now a common and versatile tool not only for medicinal purposes but also for welding and drilling, among other uses.

  7. Excimer laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excimer_laser

    Final amplifier of the Nike laser where laser beam energy is increased from 150 J to ~5 kJ by passing through a krypton/fluorine/argon gas mixture excited by irradiation with two opposing 670,000 volt electron beams. An excimer laser typically uses a combination of a noble gas (argon, krypton, or xenon) and a reactive gas (fluorine or chlorine).

  8. Diffraction grating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction_grating

    An argon laser beam consisting of multiple colors (wavelengths) strikes a silicon diffraction mirror grating and is separated into several beams, one for each wavelength. The wavelengths are (left to right) 458 nm, 476 nm, 488 nm, 497 nm, 502 nm, and 515 nm.

    People working with class 3B and class 4 lasers can protect their eyes with safety goggles which are designed to absorb light of a particular wavelength. Infrared lasers with wavelengths longer than about 1.4 micrometers are often referred to as "eye-safe", because the cornea tends to absorb light at these wavelengths, protecting the retina ...
