Electromagnetic Waves and Lasers / Wayne D Kimura  

Public ISBD Titre : Electromagnetic Waves and Lasers Type de document : document électronique Auteurs : Wayne D Kimura Mention d'édition : Second Edition Editeur : london:IOP Publishing Année de publication : 2020 Importance : 1 vol (p.) Langues : Français (fre) Catégories : Bibliothèque numérique:Physique Mots-clés : Electromagnetic waves Lasers Index. décimale : 530.141 Ondes électromagnétiques Résumé : Electromagnetic Waves and Lasers reviews electromagnetic wave theory with a special emphasis on lasers and how to use them in optical systems. As a short treatise on this subject matter, this book aims to offer a quick overview that will allow the reader to gain a competent general understanding of electromagnetic waves and lasers, and how to use lasers in optical systems. Beginning with an introduction on electromagnetic waves, the book progresses to examine the application of electromagnetic wave theory, and the different aspects of working with lasers and their associated components. This second edition includes detailed information and procedures for setting up a laser optical system making it an excellent guide for those involved with using lasers.Key FeaturesA concise but detailed overview of electromagnetic waves and lasersIncludes detailed information and procedures for setting up a laser optical system, making it an excellent guide for those involved with using lasersProvides examples of how the theory is manifested in real life and also practical knowledge about lasers, their operation and usageThe author, who is the president of an optical company, has succeeded in explaining the subject in a plain, very understandable way without making recourse to very complex mathematics. Of course, the reverse of this is that the reader gains only generic information. It is however what can be needed for many people working with lasers who do not need to have a deep knowledge of how they work or on the detailed behaviour of electromagnetic waves. Many people wishing to approach the subject without being involved in long mathematical explanations will find the book very useful.The impression is good. I believe the author has reached his purpose and the reader should be satisfied. The typographical presentation is excellent, what more to ask from such a short presentation?Mario Bertolotti 2021 Contemporary Physics Taylor & Francis Group Note de contenu : Table of Contents Preface to second edition Preface to first edition Show Level Author biography Abbreviations Show Level Chapter 1 What are electromagnetic waves? 1.1 Electromagnetic radiation Show Level 1.2 Characterization of EM waves Show Level 1.3 Basic properties of EM waves 1.4 Summary References Show Level Chapter 2 Lasers and applying EM wave theory 2.1 How does a laser work? 2.2 Laser resonator 2.3 Types of lasers 2.4 Tuning of laser output wavelength 2.5 Optical modes 2.6 Creating short laser pulses 2.7 Harmonic generation and conversion of laser wavelength Show Level 2.8 Beam control and manipulation Show Level 2.9 Optical system design 2.10 Summary References Show Level Chapter 3 Working with lasers and associated optical components Show Level 3.1 Laser safety 3.2 Laser damage 3.3 Cleaning laser optics Show Level 3.4 Brief overview of optical hardware 3.5 Aligning optics Show Level 3.6 Designing and assembling an optical system 3.7 Summary References Show Level Chapter A.1 Introduction A.2 Radially polarized laser beams A.3 Focusing radially polarized laser beams for ICA A.4 Bessel beams A.5 Summary References Côte titre : E-Fs/0025 En ligne : https://sciences-courses.univ-setif.dz/login/index.php Electromagnetic Waves and Lasers [document électronique] / Wayne D Kimura  . -  Second Edition . - [S.l.] : london:IOP Publishing, 2020 . - 1 vol (p.).
