The word "laser" is probably common *name for the all atificical light sources. No, it is not. From answers.com: "Definition: laser - Any of several devices that emit highly amplified and coherent radiation of one or more discrete frequencies." From Wikipedia: "Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation (LASER or laser) is a mechanism for emitting electromagnetic radiation, typically light or visible light, via the process of stimulated emission. The emitted laser light is (usually) a spatially coherent, narrow low-divergence beam, that can be manipulated with lenses. In laser technology, 'coherent light' denotes a light source that produces (emits) light of in-step waves of identical frequency, phase,[1] and polarization. The laser's beam of coherent light differentiates it from light sources that emit incoherent light beams, of random phase varying with time and position." -- 73, Cecil, w5dxp.com |
