LASER: Electromagnetic radiation is a natural phenomenon found in almost all areas of daily life, from radio waves to sunlight to x-rays. Laser radiation - like all light - is also a form of electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation that has a wavelength between 380 nm and 780 nm is visible to the human eye and is commonly referred to as light. At wavelengths longer than 780 nm, optical radiation is termed infrared (IR) and is invisible to the eye. At wavelengths shorter than 380 nm, optical radiation is termed ultraviolet (UV) and is also invisible to the eye. The term laser light refers to a much broader range of the electromagnetic spectrum that just the visible spectrum, anything between 150 nm up to 11000 nm (i.e., from the UV up to the far IR). The term laser is an acronym which stands for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. Einstein explained the stimulated emission. In an atom, electron may move to higher energy level by absorbing a photon. When the electron comes back to the lower energy level it releases the same photon. This is called spontaneous emission. This may also so happen that the excited electron absorbs another photon, releases two photons and returns to the lower energy state. This is known as stimulated emission.
Laser emission is therefore a light emission whose energy is used, in lithotripsy, for targeting and ablating the tone inside human body organ.
Apart from medical usage, laser is used for optical disk drive, printer, barcode reader etc.

Bohr's model explains the spectral lines of hydrogen atomic emission spectrum. While the electron of the atom remains in the ground state, its energy is unchanged. When the atom absorbs one or more quanta of energy, the electrons moves from the ground state orbit to an excited state orbit that is further away.

Hydrogen is the simplest atom of nature. There is one proton in its nucleus and an electron moves around the nucleus in a circular orbit. According to Niels Bohr, this electron moves in a stationary orbit. When this electron is in the stationary orbit, it emits no electromagnetic radiation.The angular momentum of the electron is quantized, i.e., ⁣$\text{mvr}=\big(\frac{\text{nh}}{2\pi}\big)$ where m = mass of the electron, v = velocity of the electron in the orbit, r = radius of the orbit and n = 1, 2, 3, .... When transition takes place from Kth orbit to Jth orbit, energy photon is emitted. If the wavelength of the emitted photon is $\lambda$ we find that $\frac{1}{\lambda}=\text{R}\bigg[\frac{1}{\text{J}^2}-\frac{1}{\text{K}^2}\bigg]$where find that On a different planet, the hydrogen atom's structure was somewhat different from ours. The angular momentum of electron was $\text{P}=2\text{n}\Big(\frac{\text{h}}{2\pi}\Big)$ i.e., an even multiple of $\Big(\frac{\text{h}}{2\pi}\Big)$.
