the 1st optical laser
His full name was Theodore Harold Maiman.
Lasers were invented by Dr.Theodore Maiman
July 11, 1927
Theodore Maiman invented the first working laser on May 16, 1960. His invention marked a major breakthrough in the development of laser technology.
Theodore Maiman is from Los Angeles, California
Theodore Maiman was born on July 11, 1927.
In 1960, Theodore Maiman invented the laser while working at Hughes Research Laboratory. The laser emitted photons that struck other photons and generated more photons. The set up allowed for a systematic emission of photons, and after gaining ample intensity they formed a consistent beam of light.

The first laser was built by Theodore H. Maiman in 1960 at Hughes Research Laboratories. The laser used a ruby crystal as the gain medium and produced a red laser beam.
American physicist Theodore Maiman constructed the first working laser in 1960.But research started in 1958
Albert Einstein did not invent the laser, however, he established the theoretical foundations for the laser in 1917. There were actually many scientists who were involved in inventing the laser: Gordon Gould, Charles Townes, Arthur Schawlow, Theodore Maiman, Nikolay Basov, and Aleksandr Prokhorov to name a few.
No, Bell Laboratories did not invent the laser. The laser was invented by Theodore H. Maiman in 1960 while he was working at Hughes Research Laboratories. Bell Laboratories did, however, contribute to the development and refinement of laser technology in subsequent years.
