Vocabulary Questions:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. What is “optical gain source”<\/strong>? “Fiber lasers use an optical fiber doped with rare-earth elements (erbium, ytterbium, neodymium, etc) as their optical gain source<\/strong><\/em>.“<\/em> Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. What does “gold standard” <\/strong>mean here, “Fiber lasers are also the \u2018gold standard<\/strong>\u2019 for low-phase noise, meaning that their beams remain stable over time.”<\/em>? Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. What does “tunability”<\/strong> mean? “Now, scientists led by Dr Yang Liu and Professor Tobias Kippenberg at\u00a0EPFL\u00a0have built the first ever chip-integrated erbium-doped waveguide laser that approaches the performance with fiber-based lasers, combining wide wavelength tunability<\/strong> with the practicality of chip-scale photonic integration.”<\/em> Use it in a sentence. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
