The Ponce Sisters, Ethel (August 4, 1907 September 24, 1989) and Dorothea (a.k.a. 'Dobbie') (December 30, 1909 December 25, 2000 in Cincinnati, Ohio), were a popular singing sister duo in the mid-1920s and early 1930s. They were reportedly born in New York.

They were the daughters of composer, author, publisher, radio executive, and music entrepreneur Phil Ponce (1886-1945), who became the first agent-manager for Fats Waller in 1932.

Properties of laser light

As of 2013update, it is theorized that superionic ice can possess two crystalline structures. At pressures in excess of 500,000 bars (7,300,000psi) it is predicted that superionic ice would take on a body-centered cubic structure. However, at pressures in excess of 1,000,000 bars (15,000,000psi) it is predicted that the structure would shift to a more stable face-centered cubic lattice.

Frequency addition source of optical radiation of laser light

FASOR is an acronym for frequency addition source of optical radiation. The name is used for a certain type of guide star laser deployed at US Air Force Research Laboratory facilities SOR and AMOS. The laser light is produced in a sum-frequency generation process from two solid-state laser sources that operate at different wavelengths. The frequencies of the sources add directly to a summed frequency. Thus, if the source wavelengths are 1 displaystyle lambda _1 and 2 displaystyle lambda _2

, the resulting wavelength is ( 1 1 1 2 ) 1 . displaystyle lambda left(frac 1lambda _1frac 1lambda _2right)^-1.

Guided-mode resonance of laser light

Guided-mode resonance or waveguide-mode resonance is a phenomenon wherein the guided modes of an optical waveguide can be excited and simultaneously extracted by the introduction of a phase-matching element, such as a diffraction grating or prism. Such guided modes are also called "leaky modes", as they do not remain guided, and have been observed in one and two-dimensional photonic crystal slabs

The telescope is formed by rotating liquid mercury at 10 r.p.m. in a 2.65-m diameter container. This liquid mirror technology has been made and developed at Universit Laval in Qubec City. Such rotating measurement allow air density, pressure, temperature and composition to be measured. Which can be useful to collect data for global warming and weather prediction.

Purple Crow Lidar of laser light

The Purple Crow Lidar is considered to be a powerful laser radar (lidar) that emits pulses of light. The light brightness of this laser is equal to having 1 million 75 W light bulbs on. Such bright light scatters off air molecules, and its reflection gets collected by a large telescope.

PoliScan speed of laser light

PoliScan speed is a system for traffic enforcement made by Vitronic. The measurement is based on lidar (light radar). By time-of-flight measurement, a scanning laser determines speeds and positions of all vehicles in the measurement area.

PoliScan speed is available as a mobile or a stationary system.

Apart from the use as speed camera, the systems of the PoliScan family are also used as red light camera and for automatic number plate recognition.

Achievements of laser light

Richard Fork has been very active in the field of generating light pulses with lasers.

As early as 1964, he showed that locking the modes of a helium neon laser could produce picosecond pulses.

In the early 80's he strongly contributed to the development of femtosecond lasers.

In a second part of his career he focused his interest on the use of lasers for protecting Earth from asteroid impacts.

History of laser light

A number of Sazhen-S installations were constructed at the network of scientific monitoring stations. At least two are now in Ukraine - one in Dunaivtsi and another at Yevpatoria. At least one is in Russia, and in 2004 it was reported that the Russian military was debugging interactions between the Russia installation(s) and the Russian Main Space Intelligence Centre:149

Construction of the Sazhen-S facility in Dunaivtsi started in 1979 and it was commissioned in February 1984. In 2001 upgrade work started which has continued incrementally.

Superradiant laser of laser light

A superradiant laser is a laser that does not rely on a large population of photons within the laser cavity to maintain coherence.

Rather than relying on photons to store phase coherence, it relies on collective effects in an atomic medium to store coherence. Such a laser uses repumped Dicke superradiance (or superfluorescence) to sustain emission of light that can have a substantially narrower linewidth than a conventional laser.

Photo conductive polymers of laser light

Photoconductive polymers conduct electricity only in the presence of light. They are insulators or partially conductive in darkness. Poly(9-Vinylcarbazole) is an example. An ideal photoconductive polymer exhibits the ability to sustain a high electric field, efficiently generate charge carriers, and efficiently transport said charge carriers across the polymer.
