. Inside a laser apparatus, the stimulation and relaxation of electrons in atoms causes many photons with the same to be continuously emitted. When these photons are emitted, they travel between two surfaces to form the wave that is represented in the simulation. 2. This wave is the summation of all the photons being introduced with every oscillation, and as they continue to travel, the amplitude . This occurs because the photons are emitted in coherent fashion (constructive interference); however, amplitude when the photons overlap in an incoherent fashion (destructive interference). 3. In a laser device, a small portion of photons are permitted to escape (for use in an application). This is emulated in the simulation, where Damping represents the loss of photons. When Damping is set to Lots the amplitude compared to when Damping is set to None. 4. The generation of multiple wavelengths is possible in some laser producing systems, and the diffraction angle can be to allow the isolation of different wavelengths. 5. Finally, when the power of a laser is described, the wave property that is being referenced is a function of its frequency and .
