The Star Wars 'superlaser' may no longer be sci-fi
phys.org/news/...
"The research, published in Laser and Photonics Reviews demonstrates a concept - reminiscent of the Star Wars Death Star sci-fi laser - where the power of multiple laser beams is transferred into a single intense output beam that can be directed to the intended target."

Why is this a discovery? has NO ONE really tried this? For me it was so self-eveident all along that you can use crystals to make a singular light beam… I legit thought that this was a thing for years and discovered decades ago. I’m more confused than amazed. Why has no one actually tried this sooner?

AwesomeWinter I'm pretty sure it's not that nobody has come up with it, it's like everyone's already said, it needs a certain quality of diamond, which is cut exactly and the lasers need to be focused on the exact right spot too. I've had the exact same thought before, and the concept has most certainly been used in sci-fi many times over. But I guess the easy path was to make them more powerful single lasers at first and try and cool the equipment, before taking this route.

There is such a thing as a time crystal, but that's not how it works. Time crystals are an arrangement of quantum entangled matter that reaches its' lowest energy state by oscillating in part along the t axis of spacetime, rather than just the 3 spatial axes. What you actually see is a closed system which keeps flipping spin states in a regular way after the energy user to pump it has been switched off. It's great if you're a physicist studying fundamental properties of the Universe (because this sort of behaviour is supposed to be impossible. Since it's not, we have misunderstood something, and time crystals are a way of working out what, and how to fix what we know), but otherwise probably pretty useless. They definitely won't let you shoot lasers at the past :)

NK defense spending annually, 7.5 billion. US defense spending circa 750 billion. NK interventions in foreign countries since WW2 = zero. US interventions = over 70. NK OS bases = 0. US OS bases some say over 1000. So who is the problem child here? Who should we worry about? Sources below. occasionalplanet.org/2011/01/24/military-mystery-how-many-bases-does-the-us-have-anyway/ www.globalfirepower.com/country-military-strength-detail.asp?country_id=north-korea johnpilger.com/videos/breaking-the-silence-truth-and-lies-in-the-war-on-terror Dhoth, you may have been joking about NK but there is a powerful body of complete psychopaths trying to convince the world that North Korea is a problem. That Iran, Syria, Russia, China, Sudan and others are the problem. The truth is that the psychopaths are the problem and whilst wars make them money, they'll keep investing in the companies that make the things that kill people and they'll keep wars going as long as your average Jo (you and me) buy the BS their selling about who the enemy is.

Turbo-Laser technology in Star Wars isn't actually laser technology, they're blasters. Cohesive compressed blasts of high energy particles that happen to share the common colors of lasers. The death-star weapon is theorized to be an strong-nuclear driven reaction using Khyber Crystals in a Reactor that produces a beam of antimatter that literally 'annihilates' a planet.

The first laser was built in 1960, not the 1950s (although work on masers was happening in the '50s). Theodore Maiman and his team at Bell Laboratories built that ruby laser. Apparently it still works! Does the diamond beam function as a Raman laser, with the pump beams merely exciting the diamond medium? Because it's all very well to point a bunch of beams at a target (as has been done), but unless the beams are in phase then you lose energy.

Probably the best way to make it EVEN MORE powerful, is to get 4 of the 'superlasers', combine them the same way you do to make a 'superlaser' and BAM. A mega laser

so the basic concept of a light saber? focus the beams just right and the power drops off around the tip of the "sword" where the lasers loose focus. and just like that Light sabers that hold a sword shape can work. second trick to figure out is getting light to become a solid. perhaps a renaissance frequency.

It has been obvious, scientifically, that diamond and high-energy lasers (especially UV) have a special affinity with each other. I keep waiting for someone to 3-D print a diamond-film metal-doped (REE?) alloy ultra material. I believe it will not be long until there is a 3D printable rival to CNT (and of course carbon fiber) materials.

So are they using some wavelength that the diamond works like a optical confinement/pump/nonlinear optical crystal, similar to how NPK converts two photons IR to one photon of green? Or does it knife edge all of them by bending the light along the same path. I build, mess, and toy with lasers and physics as a hobby and this video gives me more questions than answers.

It's not just the endurance of the light bending substance .. but also its organized structure. Plus, at 0:55, you said power is added to substances... I know helium-something is powered to make lasers.. Helium is a small particle. Maybe if the biggest chemical element were used.. ( especially a gas type? or if it has the most electrons and protons and neutrons? I beleive they're radioactive... maybe it shouldnt be radio active?), then maybe that would emit way more energy. You'd probably need a stronger multi-layered chamber for it as well as something equal or better than a diamond to handle the light. I imagine CERN would know since they have chambers to handle particle accelerators.... I hope they gave up looking for dimensions and time traveling... it's dumb because two particles cant occupy the same space... they cant act as if they dont exist next to each other. obviously really.... sheesh.. oh yeah.. you'll need to know how long the chamber can last until it breaks... I know there are things that block radiation...

Star Trek really started the laser concept. Please use the episode ‘Pattern Of Force” as an example when both Spock and Kirk developed a concept of creating a laser device to help aid in their jail break by using some tiny crystals, embedded into a metal support strip formed into a ‘V’ taken from a bed frame and a simple illuminating lightbulb.

So, there is something in The Book of Revelations 21:19 that looks a lot like this type of tech its used as propulsion, most likely. Light is focused through 12 layers of transparent stones and gems. Dimond is in the mix with onyx at the end of the stack. The stack starts with a transparent layer of gold. When I read this years ago I imagined it was a photon engine. The thing is huge so if you go looking into it try to understand the scale of the thing. Sounds crazy but.....

That sounds like they are using diamond as a optical parametric amplifier. It would work even better if the diamond is in a strong magnetic field perpendicular to the S plain of the wave. Most crstals used to this are niobate or phosphate, diamond would be a major step up. Can also use it's high refractive index to make small optics with extreme power handing. 😁❤

One main issue with diamonds and light: Most diamonds (by their molecular nature), refract, reflect and absorb about fifty percent of light waves. Ergo, less light, less energy. - Best regards to ALL!

In the distant future, we will literally be able to use lasers to play back music. By spinning a reflective disc upon which the music has been recorded, scientists believe we will be able to play music from portable laser music devices even smaller than an iPad.

I wonder if they shot a residence beam at the diamond in different frequencies if it would change the power output of the laser passing through? Like the way sound changes the flow of water. Could it also manipulate the laser beam to come together inside the diamond increasing the output. Or will the residency change just a laser beam without the diamond? I am too poor to try that experiment.😕
