Fundamentals of Laser Physics

Key Features

• Considering the rapid development in laser related felds, this te tbook covers not onl the basic materials but also the latest advances in laser ph sics with discussions on e perimental results on various laser related phenomena based on a coherent theoretcal ramework

• his te tbook covers enough amount o essentals but is concise enough to be covered in one semester

• his book provides a coherent theoretcal ramework rom the beginning to the end so that students can move on to the ne t sub ects with ease once having mastered the preceding materials

Descripton

This book is intended as a textbook on laser physics for advanced undergraduates and frst-year graduate students in physics and engineering who need to use lasers in their labs and want to understand the physical processes involved with the laser techniques in their felds of study. his book aims to provide a coherent theoretcal ramework on the light ma er interacton involved with lasers in such a wa that students can easil understand the essental topics related to lasers and their applicatons and get accustomed to the latest cu ng edge research developments. ost o all, the content o this book is concise to be covered in a semester.
