A brief review on behavior of sandstone, limestone and shale rocks under laser radiations

The Laser devices convert one form of energy into photonic energy or photons which are electro-magnetic radiations. This photonic energy in the form of laser radiations has enough potential that rock destruction can be achieved by its interaction with rocks. This paper surveys research and experimen...
