OBS

Le groupe de Physique des Lasers étudie les propriétés de base des oscillateurs laser: lasers à gaz, à solides (semi-conducteurs, verres dopés aux terres rares...), puis cherche à faire un transfert vers des applications potentielles en télécommunications, magnétométrie et gyrométrie laser, etc.

OBS

Un oscillateur laser est la combinaison d'un milieu matériel qu'un processus de pompage rend amplificateur, pour des ondes lumineuses [...] et d'un résonateur [...] fait de deux miroirs parallèles [...]
