Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this project we have performed both experimental and theoretical studies of optical beam phase-conjugation and of electromagnetic scattering and propagation with intense optical fields. During the reporting period we have: (1) demonstrated that atomic vapors require fewer photons to perform optical wave mixing that any other medium examined to date; (2) sowed theoretically that a one-joule broadband optical pulse, whose carrier wavelength is one micron, can impart nearly one GeV energy to a charged particle; (3) established the stringent experimental upper limits on the hyperpolarizabilities of C60 and C70 molecules in solution; (4) made the first direct time-of-flight measurements of the drift velocity of photoexcited carrier in any photorefractive insulator (n- type Bi12SiO2O); (5) determined the difference between the complex polarizabilities of different trap levels in insulators; (6) made quantitative predictions and measurements of spatial harmonic content of photorefractive gratings; (7) developed and applied moving-grating diagnostic techniques to photoexcited carriers; (8) demonstrated an exception to the law of exponential attenuation of weak monochromatic optical beams in a homogeneous medium.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) is the most important example of a stimulated scattering process-light scattering that occurs when the intensity of the light field itself affects the propagating medium. A phenomenon that has been known of for some 35 years in solid state laser research, it has recently become relevant in the optical fiber ind

This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Laser stimulated scattering and multiphoton excitation is the first book to comprehensively cover laser stimulated scattering studies and laser multiphoton excitation-related studies. It is essential reading for academics, research scientists, and students working or interested in the areas of nonlinear optics, nonlinear photonics, laser spectroscopy, physical optics, physical chemistry, and optoelectronic engineering. Featuring cutting-edge discussions of new discoveries in the field, including stimulated Rayleigh-Bragg scattering (SRBS) and stimulated Mie scattering (SMS), the book also examines multiphoton excitation-based nonlinear optical effects, photoelectric effects, atomic and molecular ionizatoin effects, and molecular dissociation effects. Each major stimulated scattering effect is presented in its own chapter, alongside a description of the key concepts and mechanisms, as well as the necessary theoretical formulations. Furthermore, this is an engaging text that explains the latest experimental research achievements and their scientific and technological applications."--Back cover

Download or read book Handbook of Laser Technology and Applications written by Colin Webb and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 1266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The invention of the laser was one of the towering achievements of the twentieth century. At the opening of the twenty-first century we are witnessing the burgeoning of the myriad technical innovations to which that invention has led. The Handbook of Laser Technology and Applications is a practical and long-lasting reference source for scientists and engineers who work with lasers. The Handbook provides, a comprehensive guide to the current status of lasers and laser systems; it is accessible to science or engineering graduates needing no more than standard undergraduate knowledge of optics. Whilst being a self-contained reference work, the Handbook provides extensive references to contemporary work, and is a basis for studying the professional journal literature on the subject. It covers applications through detailed case studies, and is therefore well suited to readers who wish to use it to solve specific problems of their own. The first of the three volumes comprises an introduction to the basic scientific principles of lasers, laser beams and non-linear optics. The second volume describes the mechanisms and operating characteristics of specific types of laser including crystalline solid - state lasers, semiconductor diode lasers, fibre lasers, gas lasers, chemical lasers, dye lasers and many others as well as detailing the optical and electronic components which tailor the laser's performance and beam delivery systems. The third volume is devoted to case studies of applications in a wide range of subjects including materials processing, optical measurement techniques, medicine, telecommunications, data storage, spectroscopy, earth sciences and astronomy, and plasma fusion research. This vast compendium of knowledge on laser science and technology is the work of over 130 international experts, many of whom are recognised as the world leaders in their respective fields. Whether the reader is engaged in the science, technology, industrial or medical applications of lasers or is researching the subject as a manager or investor in technical enterprises they cannot fail to be informed and enlightened by the wide range of information the Handbook supplies.

Download or read book Solid State Laser Engineering written by Walter Koechner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 647 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written from an industrial perspective and provides a detailed discussion of solid-state lasers, their characteristics, design and construction. Emphasis is placed on engineering and practical considerations. The book is aimed mainly at the practicing scientist or engineer who is interested in the design or use of solid-state lasers, but the comprehensive treatment of the subject will make the work useful also to students of laser physics who seek to supplement their theoretical knowledge with engineering information. In order to present the subject as clearly as possible, phenomenological descriptions using models have been used rather than abstract mathematical descriptions. This results in a simplified presentation. The descriptions are enhanced by the inclusion of numerical and technical data, tables and graphs. This new edition has been updated and revised to take account of important new developments, concepts, and technologies that have emerged since the publication of the first and second editions.

Download or read book The Generalized Multipole Technique for Light Scattering written by Thomas Wriedt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the Generalized Multipole Technique as a fast and powerful theoretical and computation tool to simulate light scattering by nonspherical particles. It also demonstrates the considerable potential of the method. In recent years, the concept has been applied in new fields, such as simulation of electron energy loss spectroscopy and has been used to extend other methods, like the null-field method, making it more widely applicable. The authors discuss particular implementations of the GMT methods, such as the Discrete Sources Method (DSM), Multiple Multipole Program (MMP), the Method of Auxiliary Sources (MAS), the Filamentary Current Method (FCM), the Method of Fictitious Sources (MFS) and the Null-Field Method with Discrete Sources (NFM-DS). The Generalized Multipole Technique is a surface-based method to find the solution of a boundary-value problem for a given differential equation by expanding the fields in terms of fundamental or other singular solutions of this equation. The amplitudes of these fundamental solutions are determined from the boundary condition at the particle surface. Electromagnetic and light scattering by particles or systems of particles has been the subject of intense research in various scientific and engineering fields, including astronomy, optics, meteorology, remote sensing, optical particle sizing and electromagnetics, which has led to the development of a large number of modelling methods based on the Generalized Multipole Technique for quantitative evaluation of electromagnetic scattering by particles of various shapes and compositions. The book describes these methods in detail.
