- The quality of colour of a Sr laser has to be seen to be truly appreciated!
- Unfortunately, our He-Sr laser, being recombinant in operation, will only work as
- a pulsed source (5-10kHz). For projection TV use, this forms a slight problem -
- not fast enough to display 1 pixel per pulse, and pulse durations too short to
- display sections of a picture frame.
-
- Can't you use a couple of these lasers, and run the output through a
- few kilometers of fiber for pulse compression? I seem to recall a
- buddy of mine doing something like this back when I was in
- undergraduate school...
