Chapter 7, Problem 19E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The unique qualities of dye laser are to be defined.
Concept introduction:
The distance between two consecutive crests of a wave of light is called the wavelength.
The ability of an electronic device or instrument to be tuned is called its tunability.
A device used to emit light through the process of stimulated emission of photons by exciting molecules or atoms is called a laser.

Cathode Ray Discharge Tube Demonstration
An Exploration
(Because of the DANGER involved and the fragile nature of the device, this is a demonstration
rather than a true Exploration)
Background information:
Until recently, almost all televisions used a device known as the cathode ray tube, or CRT, to display
the images. In a cathode ray tube, the "cathode" is a heated filament (not unlike the filament in a
normal light bulb). The heated filament is in a vacuum created inside a glass envelope or "tube." The
"ray" is a stream of electrons that naturally pour off the heated cathode into the vacuum. The Cathode
Ray Tube is powered by an extremely high voltage DC current system and is dangerous! Electrons are
negative. The anode is positive, so the anode attracts the electrons pouring off the cathode. The
electrons hit the phosphorus screen and generate green photons, which we can see.
Safety:
The cathode ray discharge tube is not a toy and should be handled with a lot of precaution. An…
