LASER PHOTONICS – UNDERSTANDING THE BASICS

-


“Laser” is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

Photonics explores the characteristics and uses of photons, focusing on their role in information transfer. Practical applications include laser technologies for tasks such as cleaning, cutting, engraving, and marking in our daily lives.

The development from maser to laser marked a significant advancement in technology. Charles Hard Townes' work laid the foundation, leading to the creation of the first optical oscillator in 1957, and subsequently, the term "laser" emerged. The application for a US patent and its eventual granting in 1960 solidified the breakthrough in the field of optics and paved the way for diverse applications of lasers.

Let’s understand Laser through illustration with graphics;

HUMANKIND VS. MOSQUITOES - Laser ‘PHOTONIC FENCE’ to protect from Mosquitoes

Mankind’s greatest enemy is tiny, brown, and very hard to catch. But now researchers have developed a new weapon which they hope will finally give them the edge they need to defeat the aggressors. It’s a battle which has been raging for centuries – an army of blood – sucking creatures just six millimeters long on the attack against enormous opponents. A single bite from this insect can be lethal, and some 6, 00,000 people die every year as a result. The enemy is the malaria carrying Anopheles female mosquito, and the tropical disease it transmits is often fatal, especially in the developing countries of sub-Saharan Africa. Without treatment, malaria can kill in a matter of days. The only way to stay safe is to avoid being bitten. But the only means of achieving this are mosquito nets and insecticides. Both of these defenses can only be used indoors, and the aggressors quickly build up resistance to the chemicals. But we have now bright ray of hope from new invention by US research fu

Technology Changed Face of Indian diamond Industry

The picture has changed, and for the better. No more squatting on the floor in dingy, damp units for your average diamond cutter in Surat, India. Instead, modern well-lit and well-ventilated factories, equipped with the latest high-tech machinery are common place nowadays. Certain sections of some of any large manufacturing facilities can put an IT company to shame, what with hundreds of computers interconnected within the premises. Certainly, this scenario is a far cry from the very traditional and rather miniscule cottage industry of yesteryears. Surely, Indian diamond cutting industry has come of age. In the developing stages of the diamond cutting and polishing industry, say the mid-1970s or so, manual work was the order of the day. Usage of machinery and technology hardly existed in India. Most of the cutting and finishing was done by hand using developed skill and judgment; and of course using the hand-operated instruments that were available at that point of time. Surat was kn
