Kathy,
I should have added in my earlier note that many of the lasers used in
ITE products use an LED type device as the source of their power.
For example, our laser printer manuals contain a "laser notice" declaring
a Class I laser, and stipulating the source as, for example, a 5mW gallium
arsenide laser.
So, an LED like device may be the source for a laser device. However,
as per Chris' note, the key is the amount of light energy in any particular
direction, i.e. concentration of energy.
