This lecture discusses the importance of single mode lasers for applications such as holography, interferometry, and communication. The instructor explains different methods to achieve single mode operation, including designing the cavity, using homogeneously broadened mediums, and adding wavelength selective elements like Fabry-Perot etalons or Bragg mirrors.
