However, in the 1990s the technology to generate a coherent beam from ceramic materials was developed, and a highly efficient laser oscillation was realized. In the future, the technology derived from the development of the ceramic laser could be used to develop new functional passive and active optics. Co-authored by one of the pioneers of this field, the book describes the fabrication technology and theoretical characterization of ceramic material properties. It describes novel types of solid lasers and other optics using ceramic materials to demonstrate the application of ceramic gain media in the generation of coherent beams and light amplification. This is an invaluable guide for physicists, materials scientists and engineers working on laser ceramics. 606 $aLaser materials 606 $aCeramic materials 615 0$aLaser materials. 615 0$aCeramic materials. 676 $a621.36/6 700 $aIkesue$b Akio$f1958-$01053942 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910452464403321 996 $aCeramic lasers$92486168 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02096nam 2200445z- 450 001 9910557602103321 005 20211118 035 $a(CKB)5400000000045382 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/74377 035 $a(oapen)doab74377 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000045382 100 $a20202111d2020 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aAdvances in Asphalt Emulsion Materials for Cold Paving Technologies 210 $cFrontiers Media SA$d2020 215 $a1 online resource (129 p.) 311 08$a2-88966-248-9 330 $aThis eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic.
