    Maser

    Uploaded by

    John
    A maser is a device that produces coherent electromagnetic waves through the amplification of stimulated emission, mainly in the microwave range of the electromagnetic spectrum. It works on the same principles as a laser but in the microwave region. The word maser is an acronym that stands for "microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation." Masers were first invented in 1953 by Charles Townes, James Gordon, and Herbert Zeiger at Columbia University.
