Synopsis

This is the first introductory monograph exclusively devoted to the dynamic properties of lasers.
Broad in scope, the book considers subjects ranging from the history of lasers dynamics through the basic theoretical models of nonlinear dynamics to the several types of lasers used in practice. Since the most important experiments and theoretical work on dynamics of lasers up to 1990 is treated, coverage is exceptionally up–to–date. With its numerous case studies and clear illustrations, the volume is also suitable as a textbook.

About this title

Synopsis

An introductory monograph exploring the dynamic properties of lasers. Analogies of laser dynamics with dynamic, chaotic and turbulent processes in nature are made evident. Subjects covered range from the history of laser dynamics to the basic theoretical models of nonlinear dynamics, to the several types of lasers used in practice. Technical questions of nonlinear laser phenomena are discussed in detail and the book is aimed at scientists and engineers in universities, research institutes, and those working in industry in the fields of laser physics and technology, optics, and nonlinear dynamics.
