The first Polish blue laser ( third in the world ) was constructed at Unipress by a 30-man team headed by Prof. Sylwester Porowski, on December 12, 2001, The Polish scientists obtained crystals of gallium nitride under very high pressure using a completely unique technology, characterized by fewer defects and higher efficiency than silicon carbide.
The achievement is a first step in the Polish program "Development of Blue Optoelectronics".
The blue laser applications:
- telecommunications
- information technology
- environmental monitoring
- electronic equipment
- medical diagnostics
