On the 4th of April the workshop was made by the Syrian PhD students. The central idea of the presentation was to overview different types of lasers. In general, there are several types of them: gas, semiconductor, fluid and solid-state lasers. The Syrian PhD students who work in the laboratories of the Siberian Physical Technical Institute use the strontium vapour laser. Such kind of laser was developed in the early 90-s and it is used only in Tomsk nowadays. The advantage of this type of laser is that is has a medium wavelength. This laser was chosen because it has characteristics which suit medical purposes. This technology is applicable for the treatment of cancer. However, there is one disadvantage which is low efficiency .The scientists of SPTI have been working on the solution of this problem during 10 years. The increasing of efficiency is being observed but the problem is not solved completely .We hope that collaboration of Russia and Syria will give fruitful results for the development of science.
The students of the Faculty of Radiophysics share their impressions about the
presentation:
“I was so glad when I heard about this presentation. It was very helpful. This report was clear
and without any unnecessary words. There was a lot of useful information and
the speaker has a good level of English. The speaker was glad to answer our
questions in the end of his presentation. I liked everything. Moreover, I think
that topic was chosen very well, because we all study in the Faculty of
Radiophysics. The lasers are very interesting for us. I would also like to listen
to the speech of the competent person one more time and to watch the colorful
presentation.”
