A laser is a coherent source of light used to control and probe quantum systems.
Lasers provide precise and coherent light for experiments.
Description
Lasers produce highly controlled light with specific frequency and phase, making them essential for precise quantum measurements and manipulation.
Properties
- coherent light source
- high precision
- widely used in experiments
