Le laser à hélium-néon. - Le milieu actif est [...] constitué par des atomes de néon au sein d'un mélange gazeux d'hélium (85 % environ) et de néon (15 %). [...] les chocs des électrons sur les atomes d'hélium portent une fraction appréciable de ceux-ci dans [...] deux états métastables [...] Il y a par suite une forte probabilité de transfert d'excitation par collisions entre les atomes d'hélium et de néon, conduisant à [...] l'inversion de populations nécessaires au fonctionnement laser. 5, record 1, French, - laser%20He%2DNe

The basic principle of the OWLS [optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy] method is that linearly polarized light(He-Ne laser) is coupled by a diffraction grating into the waveguide layer, provided that the incoupling condition is fulfilled. The incoupling is a resonance phenomenon that occurs at a precise angle of incidence, which depends on the refractive indices of the medium covering the surface of the waveguide. 1, record 2, English, - resonance%20phenomenon

The CEPES-Laser is a highly effective mutifunctional treatment system. Because of its wide application capability it has for many years been very succesfully applied in human and veterinary medicine... Despite having a low output performance of approx 0,5 mWatt the treatment signals penetrate through the combination with a magnetic field (Schumann and geomagnetic frequency spectrum) into the intracellular environment and generate the necessary physiological resonance phenomen. 3, record 2, English, - resonance%20phenomenon

The common ring laser gyro uses a mixture of He-Ne gas to generate coherent monochromatic radiation in two directions. Normally, the RLG is a triangular cavity filled with gas, in which two oppositely directed traveling light waves are generated by stimulated emission of light. In this case we speak of an active laser gyroscope. If, on the other hand, the lasing medium is external to the cavity, then we speak of a passive gyroscope. 1, record 3, English, - active%20laser%20gyroscope
