      AwesomeWinter I'm pretty sure it's not that nobody has come up with it, it's like everyone's already said, it needs a certain quality of diamond, which is cut exactly and the lasers need to be focused on the exact right spot too. I've had the exact same thought before, and the concept has most certainly been used in sci-fi many times over. But I guess the easy path was to make them more powerful single lasers at first and try and cool the equipment, before taking this route.

      @talltroll7092 6 років тому +4

      There is such a thing as a time crystal, but that's not how it works. Time crystals are an arrangement of quantum entangled matter that reaches its' lowest energy state by oscillating in part along the t axis of spacetime, rather than just the 3 spatial axes.
      What you actually see is a closed system which keeps flipping spin states in a regular way after the energy user to pump it has been switched off. It's great if you're a physicist studying fundamental properties of the Universe (because this sort of behaviour is supposed to be impossible. Since it's not, we have misunderstood something, and time crystals are a way of working out what, and how to fix what we know), but otherwise probably pretty useless. They definitely won't let you shoot lasers at the past :)

    It's not just the endurance of the light bending substance .. but also its organized structure. Plus, at 0:55, you said power is added to substances... I know helium-something is powered to make lasers.. Helium is a small particle. Maybe if the biggest chemical element were used.. ( especially a gas type? or if it has the most electrons and protons and neutrons? I beleive they're radioactive... maybe it shouldnt be radio active?), then maybe that would emit way more energy. You'd probably need a stronger multi-layered chamber for it as well as something equal or better than a diamond to handle the light. I imagine CERN would know since they have chambers to handle particle accelerators.... I hope they gave up looking for dimensions and time traveling... it's dumb because two particles cant occupy the same space... they cant act as if they dont exist next to each other. obviously really.... sheesh.. oh yeah.. you'll need to know how long the chamber can last until it breaks... I know there are things that block radiation...

    So are they using some wavelength that the diamond works like a optical confinement/pump/nonlinear optical crystal, similar to how NPK converts two photons IR to one photon of green?

    This may sound dumb, but can you combine red, green and blue laser (using said technique w/ diamond, for example) to create *white laser*? @Seeker

    The first laser was built in 1960, not the 1950s (although work on masers was happening in the '50s). Theodore Maiman and his team at Bell Laboratories built that ruby laser. Apparently it still works!
    Does the diamond beam function as a Raman laser, with the pump beams merely exciting the diamond medium? Because it's all very well to point a bunch of beams at a target (as has been done), but unless the beams are in phase then you lose energy.

  • @manikepipkin

    why didn't they shine the lasers though the top facets and have the seed beam come out of the point? I've seen really good results come from doing this with cold purple lasers

    well the diamond amplifies it but it also can keep that energy like a battery possibly using diamonds as precharged ammo then recharge lot of stuff in between there but might work.

  • @SwampDonkey64

    I wonder if they shot a residence beam at the diamond in different frequencies if it would change the power output of the laser passing through? Like the way sound changes the flow of water. Could it also manipulate the laser beam to come together inside the diamond increasing the output. Or will the residency change just a laser beam without the diamond?
    I am too poor to try that experiment.😕

    Star Trek really started the laser concept. Please use the episode ‘Pattern Of Force” as an example when both Spock and Kirk developed a concept of creating a laser device to help aid in their jail break by using some tiny crystals, embedded into a metal support strip formed into a ‘V’ taken from a bed frame and a simple illuminating lightbulb.

    Hey thanks for the vid...but now im wondering if graphene could work in the same way? Maybe graphine sheets on glass in the picon meters might work better then a diamond. Hum... A diamond custom cut and then coated with something like tungsten, to act as a high temp mirror on some of the sides, could reflect the other beams back back into the main one or the extra beam can be reflexted back for another pass, ideally transfer more energy into the main beam. Starting with a 100 watt laser, i wonder how many times you could repeat this process. Of course using fiber optics for the beams and mirrors and keeping the moduals separate and cool. I wonder what kind of divergence you get on the new beam? I wonder now if you ran the same beam thur a series of diamonds would that tighten the beam by affect its divergence. Oops sorry, too long. Great vid. Now let me get my wifes engagement ring to run a few experiments.

    Consider using vapor deposition with progressively doped layers to produce a variable-density diamond rod over which progressive and properly phased laser inputs can become both additive and channeled down the length of the tube. Think "fiber optics," as they use the same principle.
