LASER application has many advantages in the field of dentistry, however, it is not easy to apply dental LASER in general practice. Various LASER systems are in the market and it is little bit confused which LASER systems are useful. Most of all, it is important to select the appropriate LASER system to their own usage. In the present article, I introduce several LASER system such as $CO_2$, Diode, Nd:YAG, Er:YG, Er,Cr:YSGG, and its application according to specific disease criteria.

The Alexandrite (Cr:BeAl2O4) laser is one of the promising tunable (vibronic) solid state laser developed recently in the near infrared region (700~800nm) of the spectrum. The thermal lensing effect of rod may effect stable mode osicillation of the solid state laser. A design procedure of the Alexandrite laser resonator considering rod thermal lensing effect and misaligment sensitivity of the resonator will be presented.

The laser magnetic resonance (LMR) which makes use of paramagnetic properties of transient species is a powerful technique for the study of molecular radical ions. A liquid nitrogen cooled cw CO laser is developed for the LMR spectrometer in the mid-infrared region of the spectrum. The laser mid-infrared region of the spectrum. The laser system is designed to allow broad-band operation from 5 to 8${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The design details will be presented.

Additive manufacturing technology is taking great attentions in these days because the term 3D-printing became a hot issue as the next generation manufacturing paradigm. Especially, laser additive manufacturing is at the center of interest thanks to the accuracy compared to other heat sources. In this report, recent papers about laser additive manufacturing are analyzed and reviewed. General technology is specified into three different categories and they are laser sintering, laser melting and laser metal deposition. Similarities and differences are clearly described by detailed technologies and used materials type. Representative application examples are selected then future of this technology is expected through those applications. Additionally, market of laser additive manufacturing systems itself and application fields are also predicted based on present 3D-printing market and technical progressions.

Pulse laser welding was performed on C22 metal bellows. The results can be summarized as follows: Laser welded metal bellows had less thermal distortion, narrow HAZ, high aspect ratio in comparison with other welding processes like TIG, Plasma welding. Laser welded bellows has higher tensile strengths than that C22 base metal. The value of hardness in laser weld metal was measured 100-120 Hv, it was decreased compared to the base metal. It is reasoned that due to the annealed by heat input during the laser welding.

Amplified pulsed laser beam with narrow linewidth was generated from CW laser beam with narrow linewidth by using frequency doubled Nd:YAG laser beam and Bethune cell. The degree of the frequency chirping of the amplified pulse laser was measured by using the heterodyne method and obtained by calculating instantaneous phase change from heterodyne beating signals. The frequency chirping of amplified pulsed laser beam from CW laser beam with sub-MHz linewidth by 10 ns pulse was 80 MHz so that pulsed laser beam with very narrow linewidth was obtained.

A bonding process between tape-carrier package and a glass panel with anisotropic conductive film (ACF) has been investigated by making use of high power diode laser as a heat source for cure. The results from modeling of process and from optical properties of layers showed that heat absorbed from polyimide film surface and ACF layer is dominant source of curing during laser illumination. Laser ACF bonding has better bonding quality than conventional bonding in view of peel strength, flatness, pressure unbalance and processing time. New ACF bonding processes by making use of high power diode laser are proposed.

Laser remelting of surface of cobalt-based hardfacing alloy can eliminate impurities and cracks and improve the wear resistance. In this present study, Stellite ${\sharp}6\;and\;{\sharp}21$ harfacing alloys were remelted by a 3kW CO2 laser. Hardness distribution and microstructures in the laser remelted zone was investigated. Our results showed that in proper laser parameters laser remelted surface of hardfacing alloy had more refined microstructure and more increased micro-hardness than the base material.

This work was carried out to investigate the welding behavior of thin A3003 Al alloy sheets by Nd : YAG laser beam. Considering bead shape and mechanical properties, the laser pulse shapes selected were two kinds of 2-division and 3-division by varying power level and pulse duration. In order to obtain optimum conditions, the factorial design method and central composite design method were applied. Tensile test, optical microscopy, micro hardness test and TEM analysis were performed. Due to the annealing caused by thermal effect during laser welding, precipitates were coarsended. The HAZ was softened and failed during tensile test. The hardness of HAZ was lower than that of base metal, since the heat input relieved the work hardening effect and caused grain growth.
