This book discusses the spectral properties of solid-state laser materials, including emission and absorption of light, the law of radiative and nonradiative transitions, the selection rule for optical transitions, and different calculation methods of the spectral parameters. Th…
This thesis is concerned with the characterisation of sub-millimetre sized solid-state lasers. These 'microchip lasers' are examined in two forms; one as monolithic devices where the dielectric mirrors forming the laser cavity are directly deposited onto two near parallel faces …
Solid-state lasers have seen a fast and steady development and are the ubiquitous tool both for research and industrial applications. The author's monograph Solid-State Lasers has become the most-used reference book in this area. The present graduate text on solid-state lasers t…
