 DEFINITION

LASER (Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) is

the mechanism of device that emits electromagnetic radiation,
usually in the form of light that can not be seen or can be seen
with the normal eye through a process of stimulated emission.
 FOUNDER
Albert Einsten (1916-1917)
Mentioned the existence of
MASER (Microwave Amplification
by the Stimulated Emission of
Radiation) but only theory.
Charles H. Townes, James
Gordon, and Herbert Zeiger
(1954) in making maser using
ammonia gas.
Charles H. Townes and Arthur
Schawlow (1958) making optical
MASER (which later developed
into LASER) and infrared ray.
 FOUNDER

Theodore H. Maiman
Until finally before entering the 1960 Theodore Maiman laser work can
achieve. Maiman using Ruby stone cylinders for laser triggers to
homemade laser known as Ruby Laser. But Ruby Laser energy is only
able to work on the third level.

MECHANISM of LASER
 APPLICATION

1. Laser Cutting 2. Measuring The Distance

Laser cutting is a technology that To determine the distance of
uses a laser to cut materials, and is the moon to the earth is carried
usually applied to the out with this method because of
manufacturing industry. Laser
the speed of light is known
cutting works by directing a high-
powered laser to cut materials, and
is used to direct a computer.
 APPLICATION

3. Holography 4. Barcode Scanner

Produce three dimensional
images of object, usually called
holography
Laser can be used to examine
thoroughly and calculate the total
purchase price by placing the
barcode.
 APPLICATION

5. Laser Printer
 DEFINITION

Optic fiber is a type of transmission line or cable is made

of glass or plastic is very smooth and smaller than a
strand of hair, and can be used to transmit light signals
from one place to another. The light source is a laser.
 PART OF OPTICAL FIBER

Optical Fiber structure generally consists of 3 parts:

1. Core
2. Cladding
3. Buffer
4. Cable jacket
 FOUNDER

1970 when Charles Kao and George Hockham suceeded in making

what is now called fiber optics (fiberglass). Optical fiber is widely used
in the field of communication.
 MECHANISM

A beam of light will be used as the carier of the

information you want to send. This information light is
then fired onto the fiber optic media from where it came
from. Then the light will penetrate the cover of the glass
media until finally the light had arrived at the destination
location. Then there is a process of communication.
 APPLICATION

1. LAN cable 4. Television

2. Telephone 5. Satellite transmission

3. Endoscope
 CONCLUSION

So, laser beem and optical fiber can be applied in

everyday life in the aspect of communication,
health, entertainment, science, and others.
