By the way: This is by far the BEST instructional material I have ever encountered regarding the LASER (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation); a term that was modified from MASER (Microwave Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) a short time later. I wish that they would have had this clip shown in my engineering classes!
The ages when lasers were optical masers, megahertz were megacycles and capacitors were called condensors =) And a very good lecture about stimulated emission, too!
Lasers are not masers. Although masers and lasers work on the same principles (population inversion, coherence, and collimation), they have different applications. Both are still used, but you won't find a laser that does a maser's job just as you wouldn't find a maser doing laser work.
The release of these series of tech films by Bell and others are a valuable reminder of our technical heritage and should be an inspiration to future engineers.
Now all you need is some extremely clear glass fiber, and you can transmit these coherent light waves for extremely long distances. 🙂 So cool to see the grandfather of our current laser-based fiber-optic data systems. What a fantastic explanation of what happens on an atomic scale in our lasers today. And it's so amazing that -- only a bit more than a decade after the making of this film -- they were able to create laser emitters that were so small, and so cheap, they could be released to the public in consumer devices (Laser Disc players, and a few years after that, CD players). Fascinating!!
Did someone force you to watch this; Why so much hate? Sure it may sound dry and boring to you, but it was research like this which lead to the development of technology that make our lives easier and more enjoyable.
sadly, Dr. Garrett passed away in 2017. however, i learned from his obit that he had been gay and with a partner for 56 years. I wish i had known that when i interviewed him in 2013! RIP Dr. Garrett, you charming man!
All too often gay men in STEM fields stay in the closet, long after they took castration or prison off the books for the "crime of homosexuality". The secrecy becomes a part of you after decades of hiding. I've seen many obituaries for late engineers that casually mention "his husband" somewhere in the paragraphs.
@@NimbleJack3 Or maybe people dont obsess over this like you may think. No one gives a shit about a persons sexual orientation just like no one gives a shit that Dr. Salk the inventor of the polio vaccine was Jewish. People only cared that he made the vaccine.

@@ThunderAppeal Sir, you are so wrong. I recently had a conversation with an otherwise respectable lawyer who to me that he is very homophobic and not ashamed of it. He told me he despises all gays, including family members. The other guy in our conversation didn't say anything but he was nodding his head in agreement with my homophobic friend. I told a female coworker about the conversation and she told me that also hates gays (she used a derogatory slur). She said they are sick and disgusting. Society has come a long way but we're not there yet. I know it's a different subject but as a black man I remember a white guy told me that no one cares about skin color anymore. That's not true either.
Maser and Laser are same just frequency difference. Maser generate frequency below visual lights (microwave) and laser generate frequency of visual lights and beyond.
I wish I'd seen this at the start of my degree, things would have made a lot more sense. Just showing a beam with its cavity mode visible would have helped so much.
The negative temperature concept is based on the definition of change in entropy: ΔS = ∫(1/T)dQ Rearranging the definition of entropy, we can write an expression for temperature. T = ∂Q/ ∂S . By this definition, temperature is the ratio of change in heat energy (Q) to change in entropy (S). When there are more electrons in the excited state than the ground state (population inversion), adding more energy to the system by pumping more electrons into the higher energy state, will decrease the system entropy (system becomes more ordered). ∂Q is positive, and ∂S is negative, so the ratio (absolute temperature) is negative. IMHO, using the thermodynamic definition of entropy to define temperature and to describe the distribution of electron energy levels should only be used in systems that can be modeled with a Boltzmann distribution of electron energy levels, which would only allow for positive temperatures. Applying the definition to a non-Boltzmann distribution of energy levels, like in a pumped laser with a population inversion is a mathematical hack and does not have a solid physical interpretation.
physics. I think you learn a little bit of physics in chemistry. But I think it's mainly quantum physics or electrodynamics. idk but I think maybe classical electrodynamics or classical electromagnetism would help more. But I think that what is happening here is based on a quantum effect. He talks about Hertzian dipoles at (6:29) I didn't know what that was so I looked it up and the link I clicked on told me to think about to spherical conductors, connected by a wire, with a net zero charge and where the length of the wire was so small compared to a wavelength of emitted radiation. I read that and I thought "Nothing can get that close" and then I remembered the two charged particles the electron and the nucleus are very close together and when an electron loses energy and drops down from a higher orbit it emits a photon. I'm teaching this stuff to myself though so I don't know if that helped, but I don't think chemistry will be very helpful. I could be wrong though. I got this Physical Chemistry and it talks about stuff like nuclear magnetic resonance...
But if light and sound are of the same nature it's just a light is it a much higher frequency and how does light travel through space? Because sound is oscillating pressure of atmosphere but there's no atmosphere in space?
What Dr. Garrett actually says is that light and RADIO WAVES are of the same nature. They are both electromagnetic radiation, just at different frequencies and neither of them requires a medium (such as air) to travel through a distance. As you noted Maya, sound is an oscillating pressure wave and it requires a medium to travel through as there has to be "something" to transmit the pressure. That medium may be air but it could also be some other substance. For example, sound travels very well through water at a speed much higher than its speed in air. Speed of sound in air is about 343 metres per second and in water about 1480 metres per second. In mild steel it is about 5960 metres per second. These speeds are all very slow compared to the speed of electromagnetic waves which is about 300,000,000 metres per second in air or a vacuum. In solid transparent mediums such as glass light will travel slower which gives rise to the phenomenon called refraction where the direction of the travel of light is bent. The amount of bend depends on the frequency of the light and this is how a prism is able to separate the different colours (frequencies) of light. Dr. Garrett is using some analogies with sound to try to explain certain aspects of the maser (in particular stimulated emission) but he does warn that because sound and electromagnetic radiation are very different things you cannot carry the analogy too far or it will cease to be accurate and cause confusion. I hope this helps your understanding...

Anyone know what happened to Dr. Garrett? can't find any biographical information.
Nokia owns at least one of his early patents patents.google.com/patent/US3215949
In early October, 1962, Dr. Garrett spoke at an Engineers Symposium in North Carolina. The topic was his book, "Optical Maser".
He was known among his colleagues as Geoffrey.
