optical welding
Two types of optical welding exist, to my knowledge:
Electron-beam welding (http://tristate.apogee.net/et/eftjebw.asp) (also called electro-optical welding) and
Laser-beam Welding (http://tristate.apogee.net/et/eftjlbw.asp)
Note that the term "optical welding" is used however mainly when referring to both these types of welding. In your particular case, as it mentions gas tubes, it probably refers to laser welding.

mig/tig welding
from the following text in home.scarlet.be/~joannes4/Rfotolassen.htm :
"Fotolassen. Men leert in dit studiejaar sterke, veilige en corrosievrije lasverbindingen maken door precisie laswerk. ... "
a strong, secure and corrosion free weld can be obtained from a tig/mig weld
