Lasers: Principles, Types and Applications

0.0

This book has been very systematically structured and organised. The subject has been divided into three parts. Part A deals with all the established principles and theories of laser science prefixed with a journey through the relevant areas of Optics and Modern Physics. Part B presents a galaxy of all the available laser schemes of the day, with a peep into the future. Part C deals with the myriads of applications of this 'wonder beam' in every walk of life. While giving an exhaustive account about lasers, the book also covers all the, relevant aspects of related subjects such as Fibre Optics, Holography, Laser Safety etc. Apart from the excellent presentation of the topics, as they unfold, this book contains a rich fund of worked out examples and student exercises, with answers. The language is simple and reader-friendly, the treatise logical, and even the intricate mathematical derivations and clear and lucid. This book is meant to be a very valuable guide to students at graduate and postgraduate levels and to those working or intending to work in the field of lasers, to add to what they already know. This is perhaps the only book, at present, on Lasers by an Indian author with such a vast coverage of the subject itself and the associated disciplines.
