Gas Lasers

Zusatztext ". . . well-organized and comprehensive book is an excellent source for researchers in the gas laser field . . . well-written and informative! with sufficient technical depth for understanding the physics involved but without too much mathematical theory . . . It provides many hard-to-find articles into one reference book and gives an excellent background into the theory and operation of many types of lasers giving the reader a good sense of the advantages and disadvantages of each type of laser." - In IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine! March/ April 2008! Vol. 24! No. 2 Informationen zum Autor Masamori Endo, Robert F. Walter Klappentext Information on gas lasers is often outdated or difficult to find. It is important to understand all types of lasers! from solid-state to gaseous! before making a decision for any application. Gas Lasers fills in the gaps by discussing the definition and properties of gaseous media along with its fluid dynamics! electric excitation circuits! and optical resonators. From this foundation! the discussion launches into the basic physics! characteristics! applications! and current research efforts for specific types of gas lasers: CO lasers! CO2 lasers! HF/DF lasers! excimer lasers! iodine lasers! and metal vapor lasers. The final chapter discusses miscellaneous lasers not covered in the previous chapters. Zusammenfassung Discusses the definition and properties of gaseous media along with its fluid dynamics, electric excitation circuits, and optical resonators. This book also discusses basic physics, characteristics, applications, and research efforts for specific types of gas lasers: CO lasers, CO2 lasers, HF/DF lasers, excimer lasers, and metal vapor lasers.
