    The study of EM deals with how electrically charged particles cooperate with each other and with magnetic fields. EM radiation is formed when an atomic particle, such as an electron, is enhanced by an electric field, causing it to move. EM waves are similar to ocean waves, that they are both energy waves. EM waves are produced by vibration of charged particles, and have…

    chromophore is absorbed by exciting an electron. Pulse duration, in both laser and IPLs, should be lower than the thermal relaxation time of the targeted structure to avoid harm to the surrounding tissue. Difference between Lasers and IPLs The bright radiation, emitted by laser, is monochromatic and penetrates only at a specific depth. It is restricted to that small range depth. IPL however has a broad spectrum that produces biological effects at various depths of the skin that is radiated by…
