Introduction to Lasers

This section provides a comprehensive overview of lasers, covering their fundamental principles, working mechanisms, key characteristics, and various types. It begins by explaining the core concept of stimulated emission, the foundational principle behind laser technology. The course details how lasers operate, including the processes involved in generating and amplifying light. It explores the essential characteristics that define laser beams, such as coherence, monochromaticity, and directionality. Additionally, the material introduces different types of lasers, categorized by the gain medium they use, and discusses their diverse applications in fields like medicine, communications, and manufacturing.
