Description
Publisher's Note: Products purchased from Third Party sellers are not guaranteed by the publisher for quality, authenticity, or access to any online entitlements included with the product. The State of the Art in High-Power Laser TechnologyFilled with full-color images, High-Power Laser Handbook offers comprehensive details on the latest advances in high-power laser development and applications.
Performance parameters for each major class of lasers are described.
The book covers high-power gas, chemical, and free-electron lasers and then discusses semiconductor diode lasers, along with the associated technologies of packaging, reliability, and beam shaping and delivery.
Current research and development in solid-state lasers is described as well as scaling approaches for high CW powers, high pulse energies, and high peak powers.
This authoritative work also addresses the emergence of fiber lasers and concludes by reviewing various methods for beam combining.
