Laser construction information


Schematic diagram of a typical laser, showing the three major parts

A laser is constructed from three principal parts:

  • An energy source (usually referred to as the pump or pump source),
  • A gain medium or laser medium, and
  • Two or more mirrors that form an optical resonator.
