  You will have to be more specific if you want a good answer….phaser/laser could mean a lot of things. You might want to try messing around with the Beam effect or just gradient with a mask and some glow or shine.

  yeah, Beam.
  There’s also a lightsaber tutorial on here. I dunno whether or not you’d be able to apply anything from that tutorial to the effect you’re trying to achieve, but it might be worth a look.
