2. CHARACTERISTICS OF LASER LIGHT COHERENCE energy waves are in phase both spatially and temporally
COLLIMATION - laser light waves are parallel and are propagated over long distances without divergence
MONOCHROMATIC laser light is a discrete wavelength and color, which is determined by the laser medium
INTENSITY laser light is delivered in very high powers
