  • hello, what is the highest power for these diffractions glass? are material option for high power laser pointers?

  • @antsettler The diffraction gratings can handle at least several watt of power with out any problems.

  • Where Can I buy defraction gratings from?

  • From the "Diffraction gratings" page on Dragonlasers website at w w w dragonlasers com

  • so i can use a regular laser i boght anywere or i have to get one of yours

  • You can use our diffraction gratings on any laser. Laser pointers, laser modules, they will all work with these diffraction gratings.

see all

  • @dragonlasers I want to know this too. Can LEDs be strong and focused enough to create interesting effects with gratings? I would also like to know whether two reflexion gratings can be combined to create effects the same way transmission gratings can be combined to create effects? Thanks a lot.

  • I have a question! My friend recently fired a laser pointer through an opaque crystal (it was quite thick so our eyes would be damaged).  We noticed something odd. The edge of the laser looked like it was "swimming" with particles (like thousands of tiny pulsating dots on the crystal). Is this laser diffraction? If not, what is the name of this?

  • @dragonlasers

    How about an LED. If I want a cool optical effect, can I use an LED?

  • great video. heaps helpful for my study!! thanx

  • Does anybody happen to know the thickest an object can be before it stops experiencing a distinct diffraction pattern when one of these green lasers shines light on it?

  • Thanks I have to do this for my science project
