Because of the favorable characteristics of solid-state lasers,
they have become the preferred candidates for a wide range of
applications in science and technology, including spectroscopy,
atmospheric monitoring, micromachining, and precision metrology.
Presenting the most recent developments in the field, Solid-State
Lasers and Applications focuses on the design and applications of
solid-state laser systems.
With contributions from leading international experts, the book
explores the latest research results and applications of
solid-state lasers as well as various laser systems. The beginning
chapters discuss current developments and applications of new
solid-state gain media in different wavelength regions, including
cerium-doped lasers in the ultraviolet range, ytterbium lasers near
1um, rare-earth ion-doped lasers in the eye-safe region, and
tunable Cr2+: ZnSe lasers in the mid-infrared range. The remaining
chapters study specific modes of operation of solid-state laser
systems, such as pulsed microchip lasers, high-power neodymium
lasers, ultrafast solid-state lasers, amplification of femtosecond
pulses with optical parametric amplifiers, and noise
characteristics of solid-state lasers.
Solid-State Lasers and Applications covers the most important
aspects of the field to provide current, comprehensive coverage of
solid-state lasers.
