As this video seems to be gaining traction, I feel I need to address a few things:
1) I didn’t actually achieve an output here, I thought the camera picked up on some IR that I couldn’t see, but on further research, there is no dang camera in this world (excluding IR cameras) that would pick up the 10.6 um that this tube should be producing.
2) I called what was happening here “lasing”, it is not. What I achieved here was an electrical discharge, which is a big step in the right direction, but certainly not “lasing”. (yet!)
I’m new to all of this and still learning! Just sharing my progress as I make it, and as with any learning process, there will be mistakes. I’m not trying to spread misinformation here!

I’ll go over all of this and more in the next video! Thanks for watching!

Just trying to make my way into the future man
