A method of fabricating a color laser, comprising growing a first thin layer of ionic crystal on a substrate. The crystal can comprise many types of ionic crystals, such as sodium chloride or potassium chloride. A second thin layer of a different type of ionic crystal can be deposited above the first ionic crystal layer, such as lithium fluoride or sodium fluoride. An inert metal layer can be deposited between the first and second layers of ionic crystal and above the second layer of ionic crystal. When the first and second ionic crystal layers are radiated with gamma rays, they form color centers at the spots radiated. Because of the difference in crystalline properties of the two different ionic crystal centers, their color centers have different wavelengths. Each of the ionic crystal layers emit light at different characteristic wavelengths when illuminated at their unique absorption frequencies, and can be made to lase separately.
