Introduction to the innovation
The microlaser is actually shorter than the
wavelength of the light it emits, a feat made
possible by the use of an electrical resonant
circuit as opposed to the conventional optical
one
When lasers were invented in 1960, they were called "a solution looking
for a problem". Since then, they have become ubiquitous, finding utility in
thousands of highly varied applications in every section of modern society
How does it work?
Classical machinery of laser :
The three principle components
of a laser are the active
environnement, pumping
mecanism and optical resonator.
Stimulated emission principle is
very important in the use of a
laser.
The optical resonator is the most
important part of the laser.
