The RP Photonics Encyclopedia (formerly Encyclopedia of Laser Physics and Technology) is an encyclopedia of optics and optoelectronics, laser technology, optical fibers, nonlinear optics, optical communications, imaging science, optical metrology, spectroscopy and ultrashort pulse physics. [1] It is available online as a free resource.
12.1 Books. 12.2 Periodicals. ... Download as PDF; Printable version; ... The usage of the term "solid-state" in laser physics is narrower than in typical use.
Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).
Laser science or laser physics is a branch of optics that describes the theory and practice of lasers. [ 1 ] Laser science is principally concerned with quantum electronics , laser construction , optical cavity design, the physics of producing a population inversion in laser media , and the temporal evolution of the light field in the laser.
where is the electron charge, is the linearly polarised electric field amplitude, is the laser carrier frequency and is the electron mass. In terms of the laser intensity I {\displaystyle I} , using I = c ϵ 0 E 2 / 2 {\displaystyle I=c\epsilon _{0}E^{2}/2} , it reads less simply:
Theodore Harold Maiman (July 11, 1927 – May 5, 2007) was an American engineer and physicist who is widely credited with the invention of the laser. [1] [2] [3] [4 ...
Laser Physics is a monthly peer-reviewed scientific journal covering research on the physics and technology of lasers and their applications. It is owned and editorially managed by Astro Ltd. and published on their behalf by IOP Publishing .
The free-electron laser FELIX Radboud University, Netherlands. A free-electron laser ( FEL ) is a fourth generation light source producing extremely brilliant and short pulses of radiation. An FEL functions much as a laser but employs relativistic electrons as a gain medium instead of using stimulated emission from atomic or molecular excitations.
