Rayleigh Scattering

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

Scattering of radiation in the course of its passage through a medium containing particles, the sizes of which are small compared with the wavelength of the radiation.

Reflectance Reflectivity

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The ratio of the reflected radiant power to the incident radiant power.

Reflection

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The return of radiant energy (incident light) by a surface, with no change in wavelength.

The change of direction of propagation of any wave, such as an electromagnetic wave, when it passes from one medium to another in which the wave velocity is different. The bending of incident rays as ...

Repetitively Pulsed Laser

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

A laser with multiple pulses of radiant energy occurring in sequence with a PRF > 1 Hz.

Resonator

Industrial machinery; Laser equipment

The mirrors (or reflectors) making up the laser cavity including the laser rod or tube. The mirrors reflect light back and forth to build up amplification.
