We investigate the different characteristics of the intensity noise of a laser-diode-pumped single-frequency ring Nd:YVO (4) laser and a Nd:YVO (4)-KTP green laser. By use of an optoelectronic feedback circuit connected directly to the pump current of the laser diode, the low-frequency intensity noise of the intracavity frequency doubler was suppressed to some extent.

OBJECTIVE Low-intensity laser therapy (LILT) is defined to supply direct biostimulative light energy to the cells. While several studies have demonstrated that LILT has stimulating effects on bone cells and can accelerate the repair process of the bone, others reported delayed fracture healing or no effects after LILT. The aim of this article was to review the studies evaluating the biomodulati...

Ionization suppression can be defined as the decrease of photoinduced atomic ionization rates with an increased applied field intensity. The temporal and spatial intensity distribution of a focused laser pulse introduces difficulty in observing ionization suppression. An analysis of the effect of a temporally Gaussian laser pulse on ionization suppression from Rydberg levels is given. It is fou...

In this paper, we present a quatum theory for free electron laser obtained by firstly using the Two time’s Green Function method developed by Matsubara for solid physics theory. The dispersion relation for the laser photon obtained is limited to the case of low intensity of the laser due to the decoupling the correlation function in low order. For the analysis of the self-amplified emission (SA...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate various noninvasive and minimally invasive procedures for the enhancement of orthodontic tooth movement in animals. MATERIALS AND METHODS Literature was searched using NCBI (PubMed, PubMed Central, and PubMed Health), MedPilot (Medline, Catalogue ZB MED, Catalogue Medicine Health, and Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE)), and Google Scholar from January 2009 till 31 Decemb...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (apdt) and low level laser therapy (lllt) on wound healing, pain intensity, swelling problems, halitosis and the postoperative usage of analgesics after surgical removal of lower third molars. methods: one hundred and fifty patients, randomly divided into three groups were selected (50 per each group)...

introduction: low-level laser therapy (lllt) is thought to have analgesic and biomodulatory effects. our objective was to assess the pain-relieving effect of lllt and possible changes in joint stiffness and disability of patients with knee osteoarthritis (koa) and compare it to the more commonly used modality; therapeutic ultrasound(us). methods: 37 patients with mild or moderate koa were rando...
