Review

From the reviews:

"This college book describes the theory, operating characteristics, and design features of solid-state lasers. The book is written for students who want to familiarize themselves with solid-state lasers beyond the level of a general textbook. ... In this college text the material has been streamlined ... . The reader will find helpful summaries at the end of each chapter, many exercises with solutions, as well as a lot of helpful references for each chapter." (Peter Fröhlich, Optik, Zeitschrift für Licht- und Elektronenoptik, Vol. 115 (10), 2004)

"This graduate level textbook starts off by giving an historical overview of solid-state lasers and various milestones in this billion dollar field. Then it introduces the basic concepts on lasers and covers the properties of various solid-state laser materials widely used in research laboratories and industry. ... Overall, this is a very well written textbook suitable for third and fourth year students interested in solid state lasers as well as graduate students and professionals working in the laser field."
