The optical amplifier... allows the power of a signal to be restored to its original strength without the usual optical-to-electronic conversion. In an optical amplifier, erbium ions are embedded in the glass of a fiber. When stimulated with a laser, the excited ions revivify an optical signal that has weakened after a journey of tens of miles. Optical amplifiers... demonstrate superior performance for very high speed networking : unlike electronic amplifiers, they can amplify a signal carrying data at transmission speeds greater than 30 gigabits per second, and they can boost the power of many wavelengths simultaneously. 3, record 2, English, - optical%20amplifier

[...] l'amplificateur optique [...] restaure la puissance d'un signal à sa valeur originelle sans utiliser l'habituelle conversion optoélectronique : le verre des fibres d'un amplificateur optique renferme des ions erbium qui, quand ils sont excités par la lumière d'un laser, réamplifient un signal optique affaibli après un parcours de quelques dizaines de kilomètres. Les performances des amplificateurs optiques récemment installés sur des réseaux commerciaux sont supérieures à celles des amplificateurs électroniques pour les liaisons à très haute vitesse : ils traitent des signaux à plus de 50 gigabits par seconde, à plusieurs longueurs d'onde en même temps. 2, record 2, French, - amplificateur%20optique

A laser is a unit that produces a high intensity beam of light. This can be focused i. e. the power density increased, to melt materials. The anilox laser engraver uses this principle but controls the laser and the position of the beam to produce accurately positioned cells. The fine control of the laser allows for screens up to 3475 1/cm and depth down to 4 microns... 2, record 3, English, - anilox%20laser%20engraver

In order to achieve a stable long term operation without frequent calibrations, the wavelength of the transmitter laser is locked to the iodine absorption peak. Wavelength locking to the Doppler-broadened iodine absorption line was used because it requires much less power than a locking into a hyperfine structure of the iodine absorption line with Doppler-free technique. Compared to the wavelength locking with a high resolution etalon, the advantage of the locking to an iodine absorption peak is that, iodine peak provides an absolute frequency reference. 2, record 4, English, - wavelength%20locking

Use of tunable lasers. The sharpness of the frequency and the high power per unit solid angle and unit spectral bandpass in a laser beam make it attractive for infrared spectroscopy at ultrahigh resolution. The main problem is the tuning of the laser frequency, that is, varying some parameter in the laser system so that its frequency may be varied continuously and accurately. 3, record 6, English, - tunable%20laser
