Gas lasers are a type of laser that uses a gas mixture as the laser medium to produce coherent light. The gas mixture is typically excited by an electrical discharge or other means to generate the laser beam. Gas lasers are used in various applications such as cutting, marking, welding, and scientific research.
Semiconductor lasers use a semiconductor material as the gain medium, typically a diode, and are more compact, efficient, and cost-effective. Gas lasers, on the other hand, use a gas mixture as the gain medium and are generally larger, more powerful, and more complex, making them suitable for high-power applications such as cutting and welding.
All tunable LASERs are LASERS, however not all LASERS are tunable. In a tunable laser the lasing medium, which is typically a gas, dye or crystal, can be altered to produce slightly different frequencies, thus allowing the laser to be 'tuned' or frequency changed where most LASERS produce a very narrow band of radiation frequencies.
Cold lasers are safer and deal less pain than hot lasers. Cold lasers are usually used for repairing skin damage and treating pain and inflammation. Hot lasers are simply used for burning things.
White lasers are different from traditional lasers because they emit light across a broad spectrum of colors, while traditional lasers emit light of a single color. This allows white lasers to be used for a wider range of applications, such as in lighting, displays, and medical imaging, compared to traditional lasers which are typically used for precision cutting, welding, and communication.
CO2 lasers work by using a mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and helium gases to create a lasing medium. Electrical energy excites the gas molecules, causing them to release photons of light. These photons are then amplified and directed to produce a high-powered beam that can be used for cutting, welding, and engraving.

All noble gases - He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe - were used in lasers.
Solid-state lasers typically have higher power output compared to gas lasers. This is because solid-state lasers can efficiently convert electrical power into laser light, resulting in higher power outputs. Gas lasers, on the other hand, tend to have limitations in power scaling due to factors like gas flow and cooling.
Lasers used for cutting are rarely found outside of industrial use, as they are extremely dangerous and very large. Laser cutting is done by CO2 lasers or neodymium lasers. CO2 lasers function by energizing a gas mixture of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and helium. Neodymium lasers function in the same way as CO2 lasers, except instead of using gas as the medium, they use a crystal with small amounts of neodymium in it.

No. They have LASERs. Usually gas ones.
Exciplex lasers use a combination of a noble gas--argon, krypton, or xenon, with a reactive gas such as fluoride or chloride. Exciplex lasers are sometimes mistakenly referred to as "excimer" lasers, but "excited dimers" are two of the same molecule, rather than an "excited complex" of different molecules.

Laser radiation is typically produced using optical amplification of light, often from a stimulated emission process in a gain medium such as a solid, liquid, or gas. This produces coherent light of a specific wavelength which gives lasers their unique properties.
