gollark: The main interesting properties lasers have are, also very roughly, that they produce light which can be focused very well and which has very precise/specific frequencies.
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.
