CO2 laser
A CO2 laser is a device that produces a concentrated beam of infrared light by electrically stimulating a gas mixture containing carbon dioxide. This laser emits a very precise and powerful beam used for cutting, engraving, and medical procedures. The laser works by exciting the gas molecules, which then release energy as light when they return to normal state. The intense, focused beam can melt, burn, or vaporize materials with high accuracy and minimal surrounding damage, making it a versatile tool in manufacturing, surgery, and various scientific applications.
