N2 - The Free Electron Laser (FEL) is an exceptional kind of laser. Its active medium is not matter, but charged particles (electrons) accelerated to high energies, passing in vacuum through a periodic undulating magnetic field. This distinction is the main reason for the exceptional properties of FEL: operating at a wide range of wavelengths - from mm-wave to X-rays with tunability, high power, and high efficiency.
