    Totally freakin awesome! :-)
    (Having worked with lasers since the mid-1970s, I already knew of all of the uses for lasers that you explained in this video, but I found this vid to be an invaluable resource for those people new to laser technology.)
    BTW I'm expecting a couple of directly-injected diode lasers in the near-future: a 488nm one and a 505nm one. :-D

      You can get them on Ebay for ~$80 now; just do a search for "505nm laser pointer" and you should see them listed.
      One such listing is www.ebay.com/itm/505nm-5mW-Green-Laser-Pointers/223094849126?hash=item33f17d3e66:g:2DYAAOSwcVxba-Rb
      These lasers use a rechargeable 18650 Li:ION cell for power; if you don't already have such a cell & charger at your disposable, you'll have to procure them when you purchase the laser itself.
      One such listing is www.ebay.com/itm/PKCELL-18650-Vape-Mod-Battery-and-Charger-2-piece-Real-3000mAh-Smart-Charger/141738189719?hash=item2100412397

      Very nice! I've been hoping to grab those wavelengths from Sanwu sometime soon too!!

    • @telephony
      @telephony 6 років тому +1

      The 505nm portable laser could be here as early as tomorrow (if DHL does Saturday deliveries) or Monday! I'm so stoked about it!!! :-)
      First thing that I'm going to do is perform both broadband and narrowband spectroscopy of it, and *THEN* I'll start shooting photographs of it and its beam terminus spot to add to the web page that I'm constructing for it to be added to my website.
      And yes, before anybody says that I'm just going to blast things with it (and possibly perform some fluorescence experiments), you're absolutely correct!!! :-)
      This is a self-contained portable laser, not a lab laser, so I'm not expecting absolute perfection in its beam profile or stability -- but it should still be more than adequate for performing its intended function -- as a handheld optical pointing device.

    • @telephony
      @telephony 6 років тому

      The 505nm laser arrived just moments ago!!! :-)
      The color is a bit more on the green side than I expected, but I'll run it through my spectrometer either tonight after sunset or tomorrow before sunrise (so that ambient light doesn't queer the test) and I'll be able to furnish an exact wavelength then.

    This is an old video but I wanted to add one secret use of lasers and that is for espionage.
    When Germany was still divided, spies would shoot an invisible laser across West Germany into East German windows to pick up the conversation inside the room. The windows act like a diaphragm, vibrating with the sounds inside which the could be illuminated then picked up by a specially tuned camera.

    Also used by chemists to determine the optical isomerism of organic molecules. More specifically, light from lasers will reflect at different angles depending on how atoms are arranged around a chiral carbon atom. This can distinguish 2 enamtiomers that are chemically and physically identical, but have atoms that are arranged differently in space.

    • @telephony

      Just a friendly FYI: Lasers are violet, not purple.
      Purple is a mixture of red and blue; violet is a spectral color, encompassing wavelengths of ~380nm to ~420nm. :-)

Worked like a charm. He instantly covered his face and started walking back. I have a 1W 445nm laser, but shopping for a more powerful one now that I know lasers work. Just be sure to carry around safety glasses in the same backpack pocket as the laser.

It's no different than people that collect stamps. See now to me that's useless but there are people that enjoy it.

      I think if it is stronger than 1w or 1000w and if you are close to him and you are pointing it on his face you can distract him long enough because he doesn’t see it coming
      Btw have you tried this?
