This volume describes the theory and practical implementation of three techniques for the generation of blue-green light: nonlinear frequency conversion of infrared lasers, upconversion lasers, and wide bandgap semiconductor diode lasers. In addition, it looks at the various applications that have driven the development of compact sources of blue-green light, and reflects on the recent application of these lasers in high-density data storage, color displays, reprographics, and biomedical technology. Compact Blue-Green Lasers is suitable for graduate-level courses or as a reference for academics and professionals in optics, applied physics, and electrical engineering. 606 $aSemiconductor lasers 615 0$aSemiconductor lasers. 676 $a621.3661 700 $aRisk$b William Paul$01032177 702 $aGosnell$b Timothy R.$f1957- 702 $aNurmikko$b Arto V. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450398603321 996 $aCompact blue-green lasers$92449930 997 $aUNINA
