About it
A ruby is a red form of the mineral corundum, which is made of aluminum and oxygen. A little chromium in the crystal gives it its red color. Corundum is very hard, second only to diamond among gems, and in any other color it is called sapphire.
The chromium also makes rubies glow red under ultraviolet light. Tap it and the stone lights up deep red from its heart outward, throbs twice and fades. In 1960 the first laser was made with a rod of ruby.
