Full color, nontechnical brochure presents some background, principles, and applications of the laser. Applications of Lasers to Information Handling Laser Interferometer Laser: The New Light Argon laser, which emits high-power blue-green beam continuously, has application in signal processing, communications, and spectroscopy. This unit is being beamed through prisms that separate its several discrete wavelengths of light, displayed on card at left foreground.
