Ultrashort Laser Pulse Phenomena Fundamentals, Techniques, and Applications on a Femtosecond Time Scale

A Volume in the OPTICS AND PHOTONICS Series (formerly Quantum Electronics) One of the first coherent graduate level text/reference books on ultrashort laser phenomena, this book represents an introduction to the phenomena. It explains how it can be used to help examine problems in areas such as electromagnetism optics, and quantum mechanics. Written for students as well as experimental researchers in physics, engineering, biology, or chemistry, the text provides the background and tools necessary for designing experiments involving ultrashort pulses. All aspects of design are covered, from the construction of the source, to the amplifier, to the diagnostic method, to the design of the experiment in any modern field of experimental science.Diels, Jean-Claude is the author of 'Ultrashort Laser Pulse Phenomena Fundamentals, Techniques, and Applications on a Femtosecond Time Scale' with ISBN 9780122154928 and ISBN 0122154924.
