Best Answer

Because the initial work on "Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation" (ASER) had been done on microwaves and such a device was thus named the MASER, the earliest work on what is now called the LASER referred to them as the "optical MASER".

On May 16, 1960, Theodore H. Maiman operated the very first functioning LASER at Hughes Research Laboratories, Malibu, California. Maiman's LASER used a solid-state flashlamp-pumped synthetic ruby crystal to produce red light, at 694 nanometers wavelength; however, the device was only capable of pulsed operation, because of its three-level pumping design scheme. Later that year, Ali Javan, and William R. Bennett, and Donald Herriott, constructed the first gas LASER, using helium and neon that was capable of continuous operation in the infrared (U.S. Patent 3,149,290 Bell Labs).
