Xenon lamps output a broad spectrum of light all the way from UV to Infrared, so it sounds to me like you are just blocking the other wavelengths....not the same as a laser, but you haz a purty lite nowz!!!! :D :p

Nope, no way, it's just filtered flash lamp light.

Although, Of interest you CAN make a KTP crystal lase with a flash lamp according to Sam's site! They did it by exciting a green laser pointer using a cheap camera flash. Unfortunately the crystal can shatter if you put too much power in it though.

The first lasers was built using a ruby rod with a flash tube wound around it. The flash tube was able to excite the chromium atoms in the ruby rod and make it give off photons.

You good sir have created yourself a green flashlight and nothing more. Do some research into what a laser actually is and you will see why what you have is not a laser.

You made a 'FLED' (filtered light emitting device) not a LASER (light amplification by stimulated emmission of radiation) ;)
