Yes. Here is the definition from Britannica:
laser, a device that stimulates atoms or molecules to emit light at particular wavelengths and amplifies that light, typically producing a very narrow beam of radiation. ... Laser is an acronym for "light amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation."
