William Osman (born June 8, 1991) is an American YouTuber and engineer based in Ventura, California.He makes videos about science and robots. He has gone viral for a 2017 video featuring a laser cut sculpture of Vin Diesel made of a ham and cheese sandwich and a 2021 video featuring a homemade X-ray machine.
The Build Team set up three microwave ovens, each of which contained a different C-4 device: one unaltered block, one with wiring similar to that used in the film, and one with both wiring and a blasting cap. Using a remote-controlled bomb disposal robot, the team set each oven to run for 60 seconds at full power.
The laser works by the same principle as the maser, but produces higher-frequency coherent radiation at visible wavelengths. The maser was the precursor to the laser, inspiring theoretical work by Townes and Arthur Leonard Schawlow that led to the invention of the laser in 1960 by Theodore Maiman. When the coherent optical oscillator was first ...
Chemical reaction in a burning jet of ethylene and nitrogen trifluoride (NF 3) Used in research for laser weaponry, operated in continuous-wave mode, can have power in the megawatt range. Deuterium fluoride laser ~3800 nm (3.6 to 4.2 μm) (~90% atm. transmittance) chemical reaction US military laser prototypes. COIL (chemical oxygen–iodine laser)
Laser ablation or photoablation (also called laser blasting [1] [2] [3]) is the process of removing material from a solid (or occasionally liquid) surface by irradiating it with a laser beam. At low laser flux, the material is heated by the absorbed laser energy and evaporates or sublimates .

The current cost of suitable lasers is <100 $/Watt and the cost of suitable microwave sources is <$5/Watt. Mass production has lowered the production cost of microwave oven magnetrons to <0.01 $/Watt and some medical lasers to <10 $/Watt, though these are considered unsuitable for beam directors.
A ruby laser is a solid-state laser that uses a synthetic ruby crystal as its gain medium. The first working laser was a ruby laser made by Theodore H. "Ted" Maiman at Hughes Research Laboratories on May 16, 1960. [1] [2] Ruby lasers produce pulses of coherent visible light at a wavelength of 694.3 nm, which is a deep red color.
