English term

medium

English to French Medical Medical: Dentistry Laser Therapy
The Er,Cr:YSGG laser {12}has an active medium of yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet doped with erbium and chromium ions and emits free-running pulsed laser energy at a wavelength of 2,780 nm.

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): SJLD

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Dans un laser, le milieu amplificateur est un matériau qui permet d'amplifier la lumière le traversant. Ce gain est souvent créé par émission stimulée. Pour cela, une source d'énergie est nécessaire que l'on appelle pompage optique. Pour pouvoir réaliser l'inversion de population, il est nécessaire d'avoir des transferts de populations entre au moins trois niveaux du milieu amplificateur."

"The active laser medium (also called gain medium or lasing medium) is the source of optical gain within a laser. The gain results from the stimulated emission of electronic or molecular transitions to a lower energy state from a higher energy state previously populated by a pump source.

Examples of active laser media include:

Certain crystals, typically doped with rare-earth ions (e.g. neodymium, ytterbium, or erbium) or transition metal ions (titanium or chromium); most often yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG), yttrium orthovanadate (YVO4), or sapphire (Al2O3);[1]
Glasses, e.g. silicate or phosphate glasses, doped with laser-active ions;[2]
Gases, e.g. mixtures of helium and neon (HeNe), nitrogen, argon, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, or metal vapors;[3]"

milieu

milieu actif d'un laser
Un laser est composé de 4 organes principaux :

1 - Le milieu actif du laser : il est composé des atomes que l'on va venir exciter (ou pomper). Ce milieu peut être solide, liquide ou gazeux.

2 - Une source de pompage : elle permet d'exciter les atomes du milieu actif en injectant de l'énergie. Cette source peut être d'origine électrique ou lumineuse (un autre laser par ex).

3 - Un miroir qui réfléchit tous les photons incidents.

4 - Un miroir semi-réfléchissant qui laisse passer entre 1% et 10% des photons incidents et réfléchit le reste du rayonnement.
