Description
Solid-State Laser Engineering is written from an industrial
perspective and discusses in detail the characteristics,
design, construction and practical problems of solid-state
lasers. Emphasis is placed on engineering and practical
considerations, with a phenomenological treatment using
modelsbeing preferred to abstract mathematical derivations.
This new edition has been updated and revised to include
important developments, concepts and technologies that have
emerged since the publication of the first edition.
