Following a short introduction to the working principles of laser diodes, the book describes the basics of laser diode beams and beam propagation, including Zemax modeling of a Gaussian beam propagating through a lens.  The core of the book is concerned with laser diode beam manipulations: collimating and focusing, circularization and astigmatism correction, coupling into a single mode optical fiber, diffractive optics and beam shaping, and manipulation of multi transverse mode beams.  The final chapter of the book covers beam characterization methods, describing the measurement of spatial and spectral properties, including wavelength and linewidth measurement techniques.  The book is a significantly revised and expanded version of the title Laser Diode Beam Basics, Manipulations and Characterizations by the same author. New topics introduced in this volume include: laser diode types and working principles, non-paraxial Gaussian beam, Zemax modeling, numerical analysis of a laser diode beam, spectral property characterization methods, and power and energy characterization techniques.  The book approaches the subject in a practical way with mathematical content kept to the minimum level required, making the book a convenient reference for laser diode users. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Physics,$x2191-5423 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aSemiconductors 606 $aMicrowaves 606 $aOptical engineering 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aSemiconductors$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25150 606 $aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24019 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aSemiconductors. 615 0$aMicrowaves. 615 0$aOptical engineering. 615 14$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aSemiconductors. 615 24$aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering. 676 $a620.11228 700 $aSun$b Haiyin$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0792824 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910739438803321 996 $aPractical Guide to Handling Laser Diode Beams$91773065 997 $aUNINA
