Properties of LASER

Properties of LASERDownload http://www.physiotherapyphd.com Properties of LASER: The laser differs from the ordinary light in the following ways: 1. Monochromaticity: This means that the laser light has a single color (mono-single, chromaticity—coloration). This is because the lasers are of a single wavelength and thus the definite frequency. Ordinary light however has many wavelengths. 2. Coherence:ContinueContinue reading “Properties of LASER”
