TL;DR: In this paper, an optoelectronic system is presented that is used to measure the 3D vector components of a vibrating object by combination of three different measurements, and the shape of the object is determined by subtraction of the phases of the wavefronts recorded at the two different wavelengths.

TL;DR: In this paper, the output from a Q-switched ruby laser was focused into a H2 cell and converted into pulses with halfwidths of 3 × 10−10 sec at 9755 A.
Abstract: Narrow pulses have been generated in a reverse‐pumped Raman laser containing H2. The output from a Q‐switched ruby laser was focused into a H2 cell and converted into pulses with halfwidths of 3 × 10−10 sec at 9755 A.

TL;DR: In this article, laser emission from Rhodamine 6G and Rhodamine B both dissolved in ethanol has been observed using the focused 6943 A output of a giant-pulse ruby laser as a pumping source.

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the initiation of fast reaction occurs at isolated sites which are probably defects and act as absorption centres in the dielectric which is otherwise transparent to the ruby wavelength of 694.3 nm.
Abstract: Unfocused low energy Q-switched and non-Q-switched ruby laser irradiation of individual single crystals ofβ-lead azide of size 40μm×200μm×10mm has been studied using high-speed photography. It was found that the initiation of fast reaction occurs at isolated sites which are probably defects and act as absorption centres in the dielectric which is otherwise transparent to the ruby wavelength of 694.3 nm. It has also been shown that it is the power and not the energy of the incident beam that controls the initiation under these low energy irradiation conditions. Finally, the variation of the time delay to initiation with the incident laser energy suggests a thermal mechanism of initiation.
