Dental lasers can be categorized by their medium, wavelength, and types of tissue they are used for. Hard-tissue lasers have been used for bone cutting, caries detection, whitening, restorative care and as desensitizers. Soft-tissue lasers are used for the removal of hyperplastic tissue, periodontal care, frenectomies, gingivectomies, gingival recontouring, photostimulation of herpetic lesions and wound healing, with the type of laser depending on the procedure. 2, record 1, English, - dental%20laser

Le laser dentaire est un appareil émettant une lumière très puissante, concentrée et monochromatique, c'est-à-dire d’une couleur unique(correspondant à une longueur d’onde précise).

Dye lasers. Certain organic dyes are capable of fluorescing; that is, re-radiating light of a different colour. Though the excited state of their atoms lasts only a small fraction of a second and the light emitted is not concentrated in a narrow band, many such dyes have been made to exhibit laser action, with the advantage that they can be tuned to a wide range of frequencies. ... Rhodamine GG was the first dye for which continuous ... operation was achieved, making possible the production of a continuous beam of tunable laser light. 6, record 2, English, - dye%20laser

[...] LASER est l'acronyme de «Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation», ce qui signifie en français :«amplification de la lumière par émission stimulée de radiations». Pour être plus explicite, disons que le laser est [un procédé qui génère] des faisceaux lumineux concentrés(cohérence spatiale) qui présentent la particularité d’avoir tous la même longueur d’onde et d’être tous en phase à un instant donné(cohérence temporelle). La cohérence temporelle permet d’obtenir un faisceau lumineux monochromatique, c'est-à-dire d’une seule couleur(une seule longueur d’onde), tandis que la cohérence spatiale produit un faisceau rectiligne dont l'énergie peut être transportée sur une longue distance sans rien perdre de sa puissance. 1, record 6, French, - amplification%20de%20la%20lumi%C3%A8re%20par%20%C3%A9mission%20stimul%C3%A9e%20de%20radiations

Particle sizes and distribution can be successfully measured using low angle laser light scattering (LALLS). This technique uses a light source of known wavelength to cause oscillation of the dipoles present in the particles. The electromagnetic energy released from these oscillating dipoles, known as secondary radiation, radiates out in all directions except along the axis of oscillation. The ratio between the wavelength of incident radiation and the particle size will determine the actual light scattering pattern from the particle. 3, record 12, English, - low%2Dangle%20laser%20light%20scattering

Diffraction de lumière laser aux petits angles. Lorsqu'une particule sphérique est éclairée par un faisceau parallèle de lumière cohérente et monochromatique, un motif de diffraction vient se superposer à l'image géométrique. Ce motif est grand par rapport à l'image, les petites particules diffractant la lumière suivant un angle plus grand que les grosses particules. Une gamme granulométrique peut être divisée en intervalles de taille qui génèrent chacun un motif de diffraction en fonction de sa taille moyenne, avec une intensité fonction du nombre de particules qu'il contient. On peut donc obtenir la distribution granulométrique en analysant le motif de diffraction. 1, record 12, French, - diffraction%20de%20lumi%C3%A8re%20laser%20aux%20petits%20angles

[...] Lorsqu’il y a rotation de la cavité autour de [l’axe de rotation], les trajets suivis sont de longueurs différentes et les temps de parcours des deux ondes ainsi que les deux fréquences d’oscillations ne sont plus identiques. La superposition d’une fraction de la lumière de ces deux faisceaux fait alors apparaître des franges d’interférence dont le sens et la vitesse de défilement dépendent du sens et de la vitesse de rotation.

The lasing phenomenon is made possible by a process called the stimulated emission of radiation. This occurs when a photon interacts with an excited atom, causing it to drop down to a lower energy level. The photon given off by the atom then has the same phase, direction, and polarization as the initial photon. By repeating this process many times, one can produce a highly coherent beam of light. 3, record 14, English, - lasing%20phenomenon
