Objective- To become a Krypton Laser I am tired of boring work and taking pictures of people. I want to be used as a Krypton Fluoride Laser so I can help with nuclear fusion energy research and help save people. I want to be used in confined experiments that will help many people. I am powerful enough to produce a soft X-ray emission and hope to help in some type of medical way. The main job that I want is to be used for photocoagulation. With the job of being the head of photocoagulation, I can help many people and could finally use my skill to help everyone. I want to be able to help people and congeal hemorrhages. With me becoming a photocoagulation, I can treat more people with diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. I will be able to help cure the vision of many people and will finally have a real purpose of my life. I was saved by Sir William Ramsay and Morris Travers in Britain in 1898 when they were studying liquefied air. I was left behind while other components of liquid air boiled away. For parts of my life, I was just in the air. It wasn’t until 1960 when every one realized they could use me to produce a orange-red spectral line which is used to determine the length of a meter. After that, I was used for producing light for photography and then I have been in fluorescent lights for a while now.

Honors and awards- I am used with other nobel gases to produce light and gases for fluorescent lights. I am also used to create a light for high-speed photography. My friends and I are also most well known for photocoagulation. That is why I want to help with photocoagulation and help many people. I am valuable because I can help cure and treat people with bad vision and also because I make the laser have high beam uniformity, short wavelength, and have the ability to modify the spot size to track an imploding pellet. Because I have a large number of spectral lines and my high light output in plasmas, it allows me to help with high-powered gas lasers. My power and ease of discharge tubes allowed me to define the official measure of meter. I am also known for being the planet in Superman and for kryptonite that could weaken Superman’s powers.

Experience and skills I have a lot of experience in high-speed photography and being in fluorescent lights. From those experiences, it shows that I have high beam uniformity and short wavelength. Those are two huge attributes that are very helpful with photocoagulation. I am good at producing a lot of spectral lines and having a high light output which helps with the krypton laser.

References Argon and I have a very good relationship. He loves me because we mix together to form a gas for fluorescent lamps. Together, we reduce power consumption. He also loves me because he is used more often because I am worth more than him. Fluorine and I also have a very good relationship. My twin, works with Fluorine and together they combine to form a temporary complex in an excited state. They produce an exciplex laser that radiates energy at 248 nm, which is near the ultraviolet portion on the spectrum.
