A He–Ne laser is made up of a cylindrical beam of light with a diameter of 0.750 cm. The energy is pulsed, lasting for 1.50 ns, and each burst contains an energy of 3.00 J.
(a) What is the length of each pulse of laser light? m
(b) What is the average energy per unit volume for each pulse? J/m3
a)
c = speed = 3 x 108 m/s
t = time = 1.50 ns = 1.50 x 10-9 sec
L = length
length is given as the distance travelled in a given time which can be written as
L = ct
L = (3 x 108) (1.50 x 10-9)
L = 0.45 m
b)
U = total energy carried = 3 J
Uavg = average energy per unit Volume = ?
d = diameter = 0.75 cm = 0.75 x 10-2 m
A = area = (0.25) d2 =
(0.25) (3.14) (0.75 x 10-2)2 = 4.42 x
10-5 m2
average energy per unit Volume is given as
Uavg = U/(AL) = 3/((4.42 x 10-5) (0.45)) = 1.51 x 105 J

LASIK eye surgery uses pulses of laser light to shave off tissue from the cornea, reshaping it. A typical LASIK laser emits a 1.0-mm-diameter laser beam with a wavelength of 193 nm. Each laser pulse lasts 11 ns and contains 1.3 mJ of light energy. What is the power of one laser pulse? During the very brief time of the pulse, what is the intensity of the light wave?

7. A Helium-Neon (He-Ne) laser beam with diameter (Din) was expanded with an optical device in such a way it produces laser beam divergence with an angle of A, 2°, with respect to the original ray, and output expanded beam diameter of Dout for an L distance as shown in figure above. Using common trigonometrical rules, what is the expanded beam diameter for 5 meter distance, if He-Ne laser beam has typical beam diameter...
