gollark: Laser diodes are just things which do that using semiconductors, somewhat like LEDs, and are powered by electricity.

gollark: No. Someone with more physics knowledge could answer better than me, but, very approximately: "laser" stands for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation", and describes a specific way to generate light through some magic process using a "gain medium" and optical feedback thing.

gollark: That would not actually be a laser.

gollark: I think you would need a hilariously expensive and large free electron laser for that.

gollark: Lasers are "bright" because the output light is "compacted" into a small area.
