Plasma harmonics is a new field of laser spectroscopy. The use
of the solid elements of the periodic table, together with
thousands of complex solid-state samples, largely extends the range
of materials employed in plasma harmonics in contrast to the few
light rare gases that are typically used. Thus the exploration of
practically any available solid-state material through nonlinear
spectroscopy comprising laser ablation and harmonic generation can
be considered a new tool for materials science. Plasma harmonic
spectroscopy exploits the spectral and structural properties of
various ablated solid-state materials by propagating short laser
pulses through laser-produced plasma and generating high-order
harmonics of ultrashort laser pulses.
The book describes the special features of plasma harmonics in
laser-produced ablation plumes and discusses a wide range of
nonlinear medium characteristics that can be produced by varying
the conditions of laser plume production on the surface of a
solid.
This book compiles and details cutting-edge research in science
and medicine from the interdisciplinary team of the Michigan
Nanotechnology Institute for Medicine and Biological Sciences, who
are currently revolutionizing drug delivery techniques through the
development of engineered nanodevices. Edited by Istvan J Majoros
and James Baker, Jr., two prominent nanotechnology researchers,
this book is designed for workers involved in nanotechnology,
macromolecular science, cancer therapy, or drug delivery
research.
