"Lasers in War will provide the basic konwledge to create, design, and implement laser systems for the battlefield, including only unclassified or declassified information. The first three parts of the book provide background material: optics and lasers for war; propagation of l…
This volume offers a general description of the laser, theoretical and operational details of gas, solid state, free-electron and semiconductor lasers. It includes a uniform treatment of gas and solid-state lasers on one hand, and semiconductor lasers on the other.
"Bridging the gap between laser physics and applied mathematics, this book offers a new perspective on laser dynamics. Combining fresh treatments of classic problems with up-to-date research, asymptotic techniques appropriate for nonlinear dynamical systems are shown to offer a …
"Starting from the concepts of classical optics, Optics, Light and Lasers introduces in detail the phenomena of linear light matter interaction, the properties of modern laser sources, and the concepts of quantum optics. Several examples taken from the scope of modern research a…
