Kurzbeschreibung
The generation of coherent light by lasers is an important application of photonics and fiber optics. Lasers play an important role in such diverse areas as telecommunications, medicine, and welding. This book is designed as an introduction to lasers-covering both theory and practical applications. Fundamentals of Lights and Lasers fills a clear gap in photonics by conveying applications and uses, which are rapidly emerging in industry. It ends with a number of case studies illustrating different lasers that are used for practical applications.
