TRASER - Total Reflection Amplification of Spontaneous Emission of Radiation

Purpose

Light and lasers in medical therapy have made dramatic strides since their invention five decades ago. However, the manufacture of lasers can be complex and expensive which often makes treatments limited and costly. Further, no single laser will provide the correct parameters to treat all things. Hence, laser specialists often need multiple devices to practice their specialty. A new concept - Traser - is described in the publication that has the potential to replace many lasers and light sources with a single ‘tunable’ device.

Results

The study concludes that considering the characteristics and parameters of Traser technology, it is possible that this one device would likely be able to replace the pulsed dye laser and many other light based systems.
