2. Intense pulsed light - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intense_pulsed_light

   Intense pulsed light (IPL) is a technology used by cosmetic and medical practitioners to perform various skin treatments for aesthetic and therapeutic purposes, including hair removal, photorejuvenation (e.g. the treatment of skin pigmentation, sun damage, and thread veins) as well as to alleviate dermatologic diseases such as acne.

   Light Source Type of Skin used on Argon: 488 nm or 514.5 nm Turquoise/Cyan or Green No longer used Ruby: 694.3 nm Deep red Pale Alexandrite: 755 nm Near-infrared: All skin types Pulsed diode array 810 nm Near-infrared Pale to medium Nd:YAG: 1064 nm Infrared Darker complexion Intense pulsed light (IPL is not a laser) 650 nm Not a laser Pale to ...

4. Photorejuvenation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photorejuvenation

   Photorejuvenation is a skin treatment that uses lasers, intense pulsed light, or photodynamic therapy to treat skin conditions and remove effects of photoaging such as wrinkles, spots, and textures. The process induces controlled wounds to the skin. This prompts the skin to heal itself, by creating new cells.

5. Photoionization - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoionization

   But with the development of pulsed lasers it has become possible to create extremely intense, coherent light where multi-photon ionization may occur via sequences of excitations and relaxations. At even higher intensities (around 10 15 – 10 16 W/cm 2 of infrared or visible light), non-perturbative phenomena such as barrier suppression ...

6. Photoacoustic effect - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoacoustic_effect

   In order to obtain this effect the light intensity must vary, either periodically (modulated light) or as a single flash (pulsed light). [1] [page needed] [2] The photoacoustic effect is quantified by measuring the formed sound (pressure changes) with appropriate detectors, such as microphones or piezoelectric sensors. The time variation of the ...

7. Flashtube - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flashtube

   Pulsed light (PL) is a technique to decontaminate surfaces by killing microorganisms using pulses of an intense broad spectrum, rich in UV-C light. UV-C is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum corresponding to the band between 200 and 280 nm. Pulsed light works with xenon lamps that can produce flashes several times per second.
