Lasery 1968

Overview

The video discusses the design and significance of molecular lasers, which can have a continuous power output of several thousand watts. Given the extreme temperatures generated by a focused laser beam, materials traditionally considered fire-resistant—such as asbestos, ceramics, and even quartz glass—become ineffective. Molecular lasers have numerous applications—they are used in the metal and mining industries as well as in telecommunications. A single beam of gas laser light can simultaneousl
