Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Review Description
In this paper, we have reviewed laser technology and its applications in different areas. Overview of different kinds of lasers used for number of applications in real world have been presented. Moreover, this review paper covers technology advancement from the last decades along with providing a detailed transition from simple lasers to nano-sized lasers, also known as spasers, which are based on plasmonic nanoparticles. The main focus of this review study is to provide deep insights of nanolasers, structures, materials, techniques and provides a bright path for future researchers to study the contribution of different workgroups with the ease of using this single platform. We have also provided the details of different materials used and analyzed by different researchers and upto what extent they were stood successful in designing efficient spaser design that led toward optimal features.
