Lasers and Spectroscopy

Lasers are devices that produce a focused, powerful beam of light through a process called stimulated emission, resulting in light with a very specific wavelength. Spectroscopy is a technique that studies how matter interacts with this light, analyzing how substances absorb, emit, or scatter it. This helps scientists identify materials, determine their composition, and understand their properties. Together, lasers and spectroscopy are essential tools in fields like medicine, environmental monitoring, and chemistry, allowing precise analysis with high sensitivity and resolution.
