An RGB laser is that beam source that emits red, green and blue lights in form of laser beams either as a separate beam for each color or a combination of all the three colors in one beam. Through the process of additive color mixing which is achieved through combination of these lights, a number of many other lights can be obtained.
Arc lamp sources are now being replaced with RGB lasers for light emissions, particularly given that they are much better when it comes to performance as compared to the arc lamp beamers. Arc lamp beamers are known to be the cheaper alternatives but they have limited lifetime, poor image quality and impossibility to achieve high wall-plug efficiency.
Beams from these sources are known to be coherent in both wavelengths, both in time and space allowing for inferences. If the change in phase properties is able to take place at the same time over a long distance and at the same period of time, then such waves will produce a very clear image. It is possible to cancel such waves with a similar with opposite phase.
These lasers are known to produce beams of the three primary colors with very narrow optical bandwidth making them close to the monochromatic light beams. They are thus capable of producing very clear images on mixing, the reason why they are getting more application like in cathode tube displays, color printers and lamp-based beamers.
These beamers however are known to emit beams that are low in power. With cinema projectors requiring over 10 W of power per color, the use of RGB sources is limited. In addition to power insufficiency, there other challenges include maturity and cost effectiveness. There is also a need of better quality of beam for efficient working of these beamers.
In situations where optical modulators is not practical as a result of low-power miniature devices or for any other reason, the RGB sources are fitted with power-modulators for better signals. Using laser diodes in particular helps achieve modulation bandwidth of tens to hundreds of megahertz or even higher resolutions.
The red, green and blue lasers come in several types depending on the design and construction. One method involves the use of three different types of lasers with each emitting beam of a particular color. These forms of visible beam lasers are however not as suitable as the non visible ones that are near infrared in nature.
The other method is the use of an infrared solid-state laser where a single near-infrared laser generate a single color that then undergoes through different stages of nonlinear frequency conversion to produce the three colored beams. There are many other schemes of producing the desired wave lengths such as through combination of parametric oscillators, some frequency mixers and even frequency doublers in addition to other methods.
With the technological advancement, better performing RGB laser machines are being produced. With the current attempt to introduce the fourth color in this type of laser, something that will even improve their performers for the better. The expert prediction is that these forms of lasers will be replacing the other forms of beamers.
