Section 10.8 introduces the laser as a device whose development followed closely from our understanding of quantum mechanics and atomic structure. Make a list of the basic concepts related to the development, function, and application of the laser in modern society. Reexamine Section 10.8 if necessary to ensure that your list is as complete as possible. Next, prioritize the items in your list from most important to least important. If some concepts are of equal importance or significance with respect to others, be sure to identify them as such. Now exchange your list with another student in your class. Does your list contain the same elements as that of your neighbor? Are his or her items prioritized in the same manner as yours? Discuss the differences in the two lists with your colleague and attempt to reconcile them. Ask your instructor or another classmate for help if you need it.
