PHOTONICS 2ED LINEAR AND NONLINEAR INTERACTIONS OF LASER LIGHT AND MATTER (HB 2007). Questo articolo non è disponibile.PHOTONICS 2ED LINEAR AND NONLINEAR INTERACTIONS OF LASER LIGHT AND MATTER (HB 2007)

Shows how nonlinear phenomena play a more and more important role for everybody using the laser "as a tool," making it unique in this respect.

Provides a basic knowledge of modern lasers, as well as the principles of nonlinear optical spectroscopy (and an exhaustive list of 4000 references)

From first-edition reviews: "Almost a handbook, reviewing in a single author's voice the basic properties of light and its linear and nonlinear interactions with matter, both in the absence and in the presence of absorption." Physics Today

This book covers the fundamental properties and the description of single photons and light beams, experimentally and theoretically. It explains the essentials of linear interactions and most nonlinear interactions between light and matter in both the transparent and absorbing cases. It also provides a basic understanding of modern quantum optics and lasers, as well as the principles of nonlinear optical spectroscopy. It is self-consistent and enriched by a large number of calculated illustrations, examples, and descriptive tables. Graduate students in physics and electrical engineering, as well as other sciences, will find this book a thorough introduction to the field, while for lecturers and scientists it is a rich source of useful information and a ready-to-hand reference. The new edition has been thoroughly expanded and revised in all sections
