A laser produces light that?

is coherent, monochromatic, and concentrated in a narrow beam.


What is the difference between a monochromatic light and coherent light waves?

The term "mono" refers to a singular object or subject. The term "chrome" refers to colors. The term "monochrome" is a reference to a single color. ie., if two lights are monochromatic that means they have same wavelength. If two waves are monochromatic (having the same wavelength) and are of the same phase, these two waves are defined as coherent waves. Sources generating such waves are known as coherent sources.


Light of only one wavelength that travels with its crest and troughs aligned?

That's monochromatic, coherent light. A well known source of such light is a laser.


What does a laser produce?

A laser is a device to produce an intense monochromatic beam of coherent light.


What is the nature of monochromatic light?

Monochromatic means "single-color". In contrast, white light is a mixture of many colors. In monochromatic light, each individual piece of light has the same frequency, and the same wavelength. Each piece of light does not necessarily have the same phase; if it does, the light is said to also be coherent.


Light of a single wavelength and having all waves in phase is?

called coherent light. This light can produce interference patterns and is commonly produced by lasers due to its focused and efficient properties.


What describes the light waves that make up laser light?

Laser light is made up of coherent and monochromatic light waves. Coherent means that all the light waves are in phase with each other, and monochromatic means that the light consists of a single color or wavelength. This allows laser light to be focused into a tight beam with high intensity and precision.


Lasers emit what kind of energy?

Monochromatic, coherent, electromagnetic energy tuned over a wide range of frequencies/wavelengths.


What is the difference between spontaneous emission of radiation and stimulated emission of radiation?

The laser causes the stimulated emission of radiation. The light emitted is monochromatic and coherent,that is plane polarised. I imagine that spontaneous emission occurs in a Light emitting diode ,monochromatic but not polarised. Hope this is of help


Difference between monochromatic and polarized light?

Monochromatic means that it has only frequency. Polarized is definition for light which has its electric and magnetic vectors oscillating in a certain way (linearly polarized, elliptically and so on) but it might have many frequencies included. In the same time monochromatic light can be polarized.


Which s the most monochromatic light?

Monochromatic light is light composed of a single wavelength. One example of monochromatic light is the laser, which emits light of a very specific color or wavelength, making it highly monochromatic.


What is the definition of a Coherent Laser?
