Difference between Laser and X-ray laser

Laser vs. X-ray laser

A laser is a device that emits light through a process of optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. An X-ray laser is a device that uses stimulated emission to generate or amplify electromagnetic radiation in the near X-ray or extreme ultraviolet region of the spectrum, that is, usually on the order of several of tens of nanometers (nm) wavelength.

Similarities between Laser and X-ray laser

Laser and X-ray laser have 11 things in common (in Unionpedia): Active laser medium, Electromagnetic radiation, Free-electron laser, Gamma-ray laser, Light, Neon, Picosecond, Plasma (physics), Stimulated emission, Ultraviolet, Wavelength.

Active laser medium

The active laser medium (also called gain medium or lasing medium) is the source of optical gain within a laser.

Electromagnetic radiation

In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space-time, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy.

Free-electron laser

A free-electron laser (FEL) is a kind of laser whose lasing medium consists of very-high-speed electrons moving freely through a magnetic structure, hence the term free electron.

Gamma-ray laser

A gamma-ray laser, or graser, would produce coherent gamma rays, just as an ordinary laser produces coherent rays of visible light.

Picosecond

A picosecond is an SI unit of time equal to 10−12 or 1/1,000,000,000,000 (one trillionth) of a second.

Plasma (physics)

Plasma (Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek English Lexicon, on Perseus) is one of the four fundamental states of matter, and was first described by chemist Irving Langmuir in the 1920s.

Stimulated emission

Stimulated emission is the process by which an incoming photon of a specific frequency can interact with an excited atomic electron (or other excited molecular state), causing it to drop to a lower energy level.

Ultraviolet

Ultraviolet (UV) is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength from 10 nm to 400 nm, shorter than that of visible light but longer than X-rays.

Wavelength

In physics, the wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.

Laser and X-ray laser Comparison

Laser has 356 relations, while X-ray laser has 37. As they have in common 11, the Jaccard index is 2.80% = 11 / (356 + 37).
