Based on the experience of active Laser Safety Officer Kenneth Barat, Laser Safety Management provides practical tools for successfully implementing a laser safety program in any environment. Defining the elements of laser safety, it covers training, control measures, personal protection equipment, ..

Covers the nature of nonlinear optical interactions; solid state, fiber, and semiconductor lasers; optical parametric oscillators; and ultrashort pulse generation and applications. This book also explores applications of interest, such as electromagnetically induced transparency, atomic trapping, an..

This tutorial introduction presents the basic principles of the development of solid state, fiber, semiconductor, and parametric sources of coherent radiation at a level suitable for postgraduate research students and others with a basic knowledge of lasers and nonlinear optics. Encompassing both th..

This book provides a systematic approach of all aspects to laser applications in conservation. Beginning with an introduction to the basic spectroscopic techniques used in art conservation and archeology, the book describes the fundamental laser-matter interactions that underlie most conservation an..

The aim of this study is to describe how an understanding of structure, thermodynamics and electrical properties can be used to explain some of the choices of materials already used by the microelectronics community, and also to design new materials for specific applications...

This book discusses mathematical models which can be used to characterize fluctuations in scattered waves, so that readers can make intelligent choices for system analysis and the development of new techniques. The text illustrates applications of the models with experimental results, and describes ..

This comprehensive account of the principles and applications of magnetooptics bridges the gap between textbooks and specialist accounts in the research and review literature. Divided into three main parts, the book begins with the principles of magnetooptics to provide the necessary theoretical bac..

A collection of prestigious postgraduate lectures, this book reviews developments in the theory and practice of nonlinear dynamics and structural complexity, and explores modern-day applications in nonlinear optics. It addresses systems including both singlemode and multimode lasers, bistable and mu..

In many respects, orbital and spin angular momentum behave similarly, but the orbital variety offers exciting possibilities with respect to the optical manipulation of matter and in the study of the photon entanglement. Bringing together 44 landmark papers, Optical Angular Momentum offers the first ..
