... the excited state and back again to ground state. The energy released from this is given out as light and not reflected back to the source in anyway. Free radiating waves issued from an atom which have been stimulated to emit radiation are reflected back using reflected surfaces. Light wave-energy is thus reflected back to the source stimulating more atoms ... on the surface f the work-piece. The highly focused, high density melts and evaporates portions of the work-piece in a controlled manner. Types of layers used: Co2(pulsed or continuous waves).
