Study Notes
Certification
- The Physics Investigatory Project is certified to be satisfactorily completed by Miss/Master in Grade 12 during the academic session.
Acknowledgement
- The author expresses gratitude to Mr. Sahil Mansoori for his patience, motivation, and support.
- The author is indebted to the school faculty, especially the Senior Leadership Team, for providing facilities during the project.
Laser Physics
- A laser is a device that emits light through optical amplification based on stimulated emission of radiation.
- LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of radiation.
Components of a Laser
- Gain medium: the material that emits light, can be a gas, solid, or liquid.
- Energy source: used to excite atoms or molecules in the gain medium.
How a Laser Works
- Excited atoms or molecules in the gain medium release photons of light.
- Photons emitted by stimulated emission are in phase, having the same frequency and direction.
- In a laser beam, light waves move in the same direction and at the same speed.
- The gain medium can be a solid, like glass, or a liquid.
- One mirror reflects light back toward the other, creating a cavity.
- Light is reflected back and forth in the cavity, amplifying it.
This quiz is based on the Physics Investigatory Project completed by Mohamed Saheen Marakkar for Grade 12, as per the Central Board of Secondary Education's guidelines. It may cover topics related to lasers, physics, and academic projects.
