Question: In movies, laser beams are always shown as bright pencils of light streaking through the air or space. If you were to look from the side at a beam from a powerful laser, would you be able to see that laser beam as it travels past you? Yes No Yes in air, No in space

Observations About Lasers They produce narrow beams of intense light They often have pure colors They are dangerous to eyes Reflected laser light has a funny speckled look

Spontaneous Emission Excited atoms normally emit light spontaneously Photons are uncorrelated and independent Incoherent light Demonstration: Visible HeNe Laser Tube’s Various Emission Lines, Viewed with CCD and Grating

Stimulated Emission Excited atoms can be stimulated into duplicating passing light Photons are correlated and identical Coherent light Demonstration: Visible HeNe Laser Tube’s Laser Line, Viewed with CCD and Grating

Laser Amplification Stimulated emission can amplify light Laser medium contains excited atom-like systems Photons must have appropriate wavelength, polarization, and orientation to be duplicated

Laser Oscillation Light inside a laser is reflected between two mirrored surfaces Duplicated photons leak from semitransparent mirror Photons from oscillator are identical

Properties of Laser Light Coherent – identical photons Controllable wavelength/frequency – nice colors Controllable spatial structure – narrow beams Controllable temporal structure – short pulses Energy storage and retrieval – intense pulses Giant interference effects Apart from these issues, laser light is just light Demonstration: Laser and Grids/Slits

Question: In movies, laser beams are always shown as bright pencils of light streaking through the air or space. If you were to look from the side at a beam from a powerful laser, would you be able to see that laser beam as it travels past you? Yes No Yes in air, No in space
