    Default Classy Old Laser Film

    Here's a very early film from 1964 all about lasers, narrated by Chet Huntley and featuring Charles Townes. The first CW visible laser, the Perkin Elmer / Spectra-Physics model 110, is seen at 17:20, 25:30 and 26:00. The power supply and in-line RF control for it are seen at 30:16. Another very early He-Ne, the spectra-Physics model 115, is seen at 14:50. Enjoy!

    That was a very interesting video, thanks.

    I just love the old CRO with photographic attachment. Awesome.

    I have been trying to work out why my lab does not look techy enough, wood paneling on the walls! Thats what it's missing!

    My we have come a long way.
