章节摘录

　　Our century has seen many technological discoveries. The oddest discovery so far and perhaps the most useful, was made in 1954. a way to transform some of the energy within the atom to a unique kind of light. This new form of light is so powerful that it has reached the moon, and so fiery that it can burn through asbestos and four-inch- thick firebricks as if they were tissue paper.　　The instrument generating this fantastic light is called a laser. （The word laser is an acronym, fr　　m light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. ） There are two commonly used lasers: one, a glass tube filled with helium, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide gas; the other, a rod of synthetic ruby crystal enclosed in an enameled steel box. Both types have shutterlike devices controlling the release of light.　　When the gases or ruby crystals are exposed to intense bolts of light, somewhat like those given off by flash bulbs, an extraordinary phenomenon occurs. It occurs in the subatomic particles orbiting, like planets, around the greater number of particles forming the "sun" or nucleus of the atom. There are no nontechnical words to describe this phenomenon among the orbiting particles of the material being lased. The best explanation scientists can offer us is that the bolts of light so "excite" these particles that they work themselves up to an energy level much higher than normal. Then, when they "relax" to their normal state,: they discharge the excess energy in the form of light waves.
