Polish blue laser

Polish blue laser

The first Polish blue laser ( and the third in the world ) was constructed at Unipress by a 30-man team headed by Prof. Sylwester Porowski. On December 12 2001, using a unique technology, the team of scientists with very high pressures managed to produce crystals of gallium nitride, characterized by fewer defects and higher efficiency than silicon carbide.

The achievement is a first step in the Polish program called "Development of Blue Optoelectronics".

Areas of application of the blue laser:
* telecommunications
* information technology
* environmental monitoring
* electronic equipment
* medical diagnostics
