There's a laser right in front of you - though you can't see it - in your computer's CD or DVD drive! When writing it etches tiny pits in the surface of the disc. When reading the disc it forms a photo-electric couple in which its beam is broken by the pits (each pit is a 1 or 0 - I don't know which).

They have numerous otherapplications such as:

Fine-cutting shapes from sheet-metal and other materials.

As the light source in fibre-optical electronics including the under-sea cables linking our respective telephone networks & hence our computers.

Certain surgical operations including on the eye.

Surveying equipment.

Bar-code scanners.
