Perhaps you should read the Diode Laser chapters of the Laser FAQ before

Perhaps it's time for a visit there. Been awhile since I stomped around
repairfaq.org, howstuffworks etc.

Sorry, I may have been a bit hard on you.

I think my main problem is with the terminology, and the fact that I'm a TV
tech. Even at that, I think it's going to be awhile before I grasp the
"simulated" part, because there uwas/u emission to excite the medium.

Not siulated, stimulated!

Mainly, this thread was about induction heating, but I'll remember to keep
lasers out of it until I know more Thanx for the enulight/uenment.

Right. Why are we talking about lasers?
