Question
Chapter 7, Problem 47E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The color of laser which would be appropriate to remove a blue tattoo is to be specified. Also, the use of a laser other than a blue laser to remove the tattoo is to be studied.
Concept Introduction:
Absorption spectroscopy is a technique of measuring the absorption of radiation. The color of any substance depends on the respective colors of the light absorbed and reflected by its molecules or atoms.
Absorption spectroscopy is very useful in distinguishing many chemical compounds from each other in a mixture.
The specificity of spectroscopy allows to identify unknown samples by comparing them with the reference spectra.

In what region of the electromagnetic spectrum is this radiation? What is its frequency? (b) A Blu-ray laser has a power of 5 millwatts (1watt=1Js1). How many photons of light are produced by the laser in 1 hour? (c) The ideal resolution of a player using a laser (such as a Blu-ray player), which determines how close together data can be stored on a compact disk, is determined using the following formula: Resolution =0.60(/NA), where A is the wavelength of the laser and NA is the numerical aperture. Numerical aperture is a measure of the size of the spot of light on the disk; the larger the NA, the smaller the spot. In a typical Blu-ray system, NA = 0.95. If the 405-nm laser is used in a Blu-ray player, what is the closest that information can be stored on a Blu-ray disk? (d) The data density of a Blu-ray disk using a 405-nm laser is 1.5107 bits mm2.

If a Blu-ray disk can hold 9,400,000 pages of text, how many data bits are needed for a typed page? (Hint: Determine the area of the disk that is available to hold data. The area inside a circle is given by A=r2, where the radius r is one-half of the diameter.)arrow_forward
