Laser

A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. The term "laser" originated as an acronym for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation". The first laser was built in 1960 by Theodore H. Maiman at Hughes Laboratories, based on theoretical work by Charles Hard Townes and Arthur Leonard Schawlow. A laser differs from other sources of light in that it emits light coherently. Spatial coherence allows a laser to be focused to a tight spot, enabling applications such as laser cutting and lithography. Spatial coherence also allows a laser beam to stay narrow over great distances (collimation), enabling applications such as laser pointers. Lasers can also have high temporal coherence, which allows them to emit light with a very narrow spectrum, i.e., they can emit a single color of light. Temporal coherence can be used to produce pulses of light as short as a femtosecond.

Among their many applications, lasers are used in optical disk drives, laser printers, and barcode scanners; fiber-optic and free-space optical communication; laser surgery and skin treatments; cutting and welding materials; military and law enforcement devices for marking targets and measuring range and speed; and laser lighting displays in entertainment.

Background

On a phone call between Canadians Bruce Kirby and Ian Bruce in 1969, the pair discussed the possibility of a car-topped dinghy (a boat small enough to be carried on a roof rack of a typical car) for a line of camping equipment. Kirby resultantly sketched out what would be known as "the million dollar doodle." Following his "doodle" Kirby developed working drawings that Ian Bruce used to develop the Laser.

Palabras

by: Lucero

Llamame rosa del alba
Dime que soy tu pasión
Nombrame luz de tu vida
Me consuela oirtelo
Jurame amor infinito
Vuelveme rayo de sol
Sabes decir lo más bello
Pero no me das amor
-CORO-
Me das palabras,
Sólo palabras
Que me conmueven y después
¡Nada de nada!
Palabras
Todo palabras
Que me pretenden ocultar
!Que no me amas¡
Palabras
Sólo palabras
Que le dan vuelta al corazón
Cuando me hablas.
Palabras,todo palabras
Muestrame lunas de plata
llamame tu adoración
hazme poemas o canta
se agradece la intención
Hablame tan con el alma
que se te quiebre la voz
sabes rendirme sin duda
pero no me das amor, no tu no me das amor
-CORO-
