The video will be dedicated to the discovery of lasers by Russian scientists Alexander Prokhorov and Nikolai Basov (for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics), as well as the work of Zhores Alferov on the creation of highly efficient materials for high-speed optoelectronic networks. The series will tell about the types of lasers and how they have evolved, about their application in various fields of science and technology, as well as in everyday life.
