The TEA laser, represents work by the Defence Research Department Valcartier (DREV). It is a prototype that led to the development of the first TEA laser in the world. It is an example of an enabling technology and technique in which Canada was leading in the late 1960's and 1970's. Les lasers TEA représente le travail du Département de la Défense et Recherche Valcartier (DREV). Ce prototype a été la fondation qui a pour la conception du tout premier TEA laser au monde. Ceci est une démonstration des techniques et technologie qui plaçait le Canada a lavant plan pendant les années 1960s et 1970s.
Function
Originally classified by the military for remote sensing and for laser radar applications and research. It wasn't until the mid-1970's that a commercial practical application was found such as laser barcode scanners. Des lasers était originalement classifiée par le militaire pour la détection à distance et pour des applications de radar ainsi que pour de la recherche. Ce n'était pas avant les années 1970 que des applications plus pratiques étaient conçues pour le laser tout comme les lecteurs codes à barres.
Technical
The theoretical foundation of the laser can be traced back to Albert Einstein in 1917, however, the first laser appeared in 1960 and it wasn't until the mid 1970's that a commercial practical application was found in laser barcode scanners. This laser uses a three-gas mixture, carbon monoxide, nitrogen, and helium. Helium gives a uniform discharge. La fondation théorique de laser peut être retracée jusqu'à l'année 1917 et Albert Einstein. Cependant, les premiers lasers ont apparu en 1960 et seulement après les années 1970s une conception pratique et commerciaux étais imaginé pour introduire la technologie de laser à des lecteurs codes à barres. Les lasers TEA utilise un mélange de trois gaz incluant le monoxyde de carbon, le nitrogène et l'hélium pour créer un renvoi uniforme.

Finish
A synthetic plexiglass covers most of the laser in the shape of a rectangular prism. Brass and copper metal are also apparent throughout the artifact beneath the synthetic material along with metal resisters. Black plugs are likewise visible at either end of the laser tube. Du plexiglas synthétique recouvre une grande partie de le laser qui est en forme de prisme rectangulaire. Du métal de couleur cuivre et laiton son visible sur l'objet en dessous du matériel synthétique. Des batteries de résistance en métal sons aussi visible sous le plexiglas. Des bouchons noirs sont de chaque cotée du tube à l'intérieur de le laser.
