Description
- This Third Edition incorporates material on important new developments in lasers and quantum electronics. Covers phase-conjugate optics and its myriad applications, the long wavelength quaternary semiconductor laser and our deepened understanding of the physics of semiconductor lasers especially that applying to their current modulations and limiting bandwidth, laser arrays and the related concept of super modes, quantum well semiconductor lasers, the role of phase amplitude coupling in laser noise and free electron lasers. In addition, the chapters on laser noise and third order nonlinear effects have been extensively revised.
