A laser used in LASIK laser eye surgery has a wavelength of 193 nm. What is the frequency in hertz and the energy in joules of one photon of radiation of this laser? (E=hn), h = Planck's constant, 6.63 x 10^-34 J sec (a) LASIK eye laser, ĆĀ» = 193 nm (b) A CO2 laser used in dermatology for skin resurfacing operates at a frequency of n = 2.828 x 10^7 s^-1. What is the wavelength of this electromagnetic radiation? What is the energy in joules of one photon of radiation of this laser?

(a) What is the frequency of the 193 -nm ultraviolet radiation used in laser eye surgery? (b) Assuming the accuracy with which this EM radiation can ablate the cornea is directly proportional to wavelength, how much more accurate can this UV be than the shortest visible wavelength of light?
