Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy — (LIBS) is a type of atomic emission spectroscopy which utilises a highly energetic laser pulse as the excitation source. LIBS can analyse any matter regardless of its physical state, be it solid, liquid or gas. Even slurries, aerosols, gels, and… … Wikipedia
Laser-hybrid welding — is a type of welding process that combines the principles of laser beam welding and arc welding. Introduction The combination of laser light and an electrical arc into an amalgamated welding process has beenknown since the 1970 s, but has only… … Wikipedia
Laser pumping — is the act of energy transfer from an external source into the gain medium of a laser. The energy is absorbed in the medium, producing excited states in its atoms. When the number of particles in one excited state exceeds the number of particles… … Wikipedia
Laser guidance — is a technique of guiding a missile or other projectile or vehicle to a target by means of a laser beam. Some laser guided systems utilise beam riding guidance, but most operate more similarly to semi active radar homing (SARH). This technique is … Wikipedia

Laser safety — A typical laser warning symbol. Laser safety is safe design, use and implementation of lasers to minimize the risk of laser accidents, especially those involving eye injuries. Since even relatively small amounts of laser light can lead to… … Wikipedia
Radiation implosion — The term radiation implosion describes the process behind a class of devices which use high levels of electromagnetic radiation to compress a target. The major use for this technology is in fusion bombs and inertial confinement fusion research.… … Wikipedia
