Difference between Laser diode and Second-harmonic generation

Laser diode vs. Second-harmonic generation

A laser diode, (LD), injection laser diode (ILD), or diode laser is a semiconductor device similar to a light-emitting diode in which the laser beam is created at the diode's junction. Second harmonic generation (also called frequency doubling or SHG) is a nonlinear optical process in which two photons with the same frequency interact with a nonlinear material, are "combined", and generate a new photon with twice the energy of the initial photons (equivalently, twice the frequency and half the wavelength).

Similarities between Laser diode and Second-harmonic generation

Laser diode and Second-harmonic generation have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Laser pointer, Wavelength.

Laser pointer

A laser pointer or laser pen is a small handheld device with a power source (usually a battery) and a laser diode emitting a very narrow coherent low-powered laser beam of visible light, intended to be used to highlight something of interest by illuminating it with a small bright spot of colored light.

Wavelength

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

Laser diode and Second-harmonic generation Comparison

Laser diode has 144 relations, while Second-harmonic generation has 30. As they have in common 2, the Jaccard index is 1.15% = 2 / (144 + 30).
