This book describes the most important breakthrough in solid-state laser techniques. It marks the beginning of a new era in the application of semiconductor lasers. Now the whole spectrum of visible light can be covered by one small device. The second edition is both updated and extended to cover the whole range of related topics.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
FROM A REVIEW OF THE FIRST EDITION
"The technical chapters will be lapped up by semiconductor specialists keen to know more ... the book includes fascinating material that answers the question: why did Nakamura succeed where many, much larger, research groups failed."
