Laser Pulses

Laser pulses are short bursts of light emitted by a laser, often lasting just billionths of a second. Unlike continuous light, pulses allow for precise and controlled applications, such as in medical treatments, communications, and materials processing. The intensity and duration of these pulses can be finely tuned, enabling various effects, like cutting through materials or targeted medical procedures with minimal impact on surrounding tissue. By transmitting information quickly and effectively, laser pulses are vital in technologies like fiber-optic communication and precise measurements in scientific research.
