LAZER-DRIVEN LIGHT SOURCE

摘要

An apparatus for producing light (100) includes a chamber (128) and an ignition source (140) that ionizes a gas within the chamber. The apparatus also includes at least one laser (104) that provides energy to the ionized gas within the chamber to produce a high brightness light (136). The laser can provide a substantially continuous amount of energy to the ionized gas to generate a substantially continuous high brightness light.
