After an introduction to the basics of laser physics, different laser types and materials for lasers are summarized in the context of a historical survey, outlining the evolution of the laser over the past five decades. This includes, amongst other aspects, gas lasers, excimer lasers, the wide range of solid-state and semiconductor lasers, and femtosecond and other pulsed lasers where particular attention is paid to high-power sources. Subsequent chapters address related topics such as laser modulation and nonlinear frequency conversion. In closing, the enormous importance of the laser is demonstrated by highlighting its current applications in everyday life and its potential for future developments. Typical applications in advanced material processing, medicine and biophotonics as well as plasma and X-ray generation for nanoscale lithography are discussed. The book provides broad and topical coverage of laser photonics and opto-electronics, focusing on significant findings and recent advances rather than in-depth theoretical studies. Thus, it is intended not only for university students and engineers, but also for scientists and professionals applying lasers in biomedicine, material processing and everyday consumer products. Further, it represents essential reading for engineers using or developing high-power lasers for scientific or industrial applications. 410 0$aSpringer Series in Optical Sciences,$x0342-4111 ;$v220 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronics$xMaterials 606 $aMicrowaves 606 $aOptical engineering 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aSpectrum analysis 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 606 $aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24019 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 606 $aSpectroscopy/Spectrometry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C11020 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronics$xMaterials. 615 0$aMicrowaves. 615 0$aOptical engineering. 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aSpectrum analysis. 615 14$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 615 24$aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering. 615 24$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aSpectroscopy/Spectrometry. 676 $a621.366 700 $aEichler$b H.
