KrF Laser (Krypton Fluoride Laser)

A KrF laser, or Krypton Fluoride laser, is a type of ultraviolet laser that uses a mixture of krypton and fluorine gases. When energized with electricity, these gases produce a powerful ultraviolet laser beam at a specific wavelength (around 248 nanometers). KrF lasers are valued for their high precision and short wavelength, making them useful in applications like semiconductor manufacturing, laser surgery, and scientific research. They operate by exciting the gas molecules to emit intense, coherent light, which can be directed and focused for various technical uses.
