This unique book provides an overview of the principle and applications of lasers enriched with numerous illustrations.Being over fifty years old, lasers continue to amaze us. Their performance characteristics are constantly reaching new limits, and the scope of their applications continues to expand. Yet, it took years of effort by teams of physicists to transform the fundamental notions of Einstein into the first experimental beam of laser light. And history is still going on as fundamental research is now triggered by its remarkable properties.This book addresses every aspects of laser light, from its fundamental principles to its industrial applications, at a level particularly suited for high school teachers, students, and anybody curious about science and technology.

"Lasers" are active ingredients of our modern life, but they are inconspicuous as they often go unnoticed. This intuitive introductory guide will tell you all you want to know about laser technologies in very diverse fields from nuclear and particle physics to medicine, astronomy and ultra-precise metrology. The book is coherently focused on fundamentals, and is aimed to stimulate intuition about present and future applications, while unveiling the halo of myths around lasers. Written by reputable laser experts who think that science should be entertaining, this useful reference relies on simple analogies and illustrations rather than complex mathematics, and will be suitable for students and end-users of laser technologies, including novices. Voted a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title 2012

This book deals with the Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) a widely used atomic emission spectroscopy technique for elemental analysis of materials. It is based on the use of a high-power, short pulse laser excitation. The book is divided into two main sections: the first one concerning theoretical aspects of the technique, the second one describing the state of the art in applications of the technique in different scientific/technological areas. Numerous examples of state of the art applications provide the readers an almost complete scenario of the LIBS technique. The LIBS theoretical aspects are reviewed. The book helps the readers who are less familiar with the technique to understand the basic principles. Numerous examples of state of the art applications give an almost complete scenario of the LIBS technique potentiality. These examples of applications may have a strong impact on future industrial utilization. The authors made important contributions to the development of this field.

Lasers have a wide and growing range of applications in medicine. Lasers for Medical Applications summarises the wealth of recent research on the principles, technologies and application of lasers in diagnostics, therapy and surgery. Part one gives an overview of the use of lasers in medicine, key principles of lasers and radiation interactions with tissue. To understand the wide diversity and therefore the large possible choice of these devices for a specific diagnosis or treatment, the respective types of the laser (solid state, gas, dye, and semiconductor) are reviewed in part two. Part three describes diagnostic laser methods, for example optical coherence tomography, spectroscopy, optical biopsy, and time-resolved fluorescence polarization spectroscopy. Those methods help doctors to refine the scope of involvement of the particular body part or, for example, to specify the extent of a tumor. Part four concentrates on the therapeutic applications of laser radiation in particular branches of medicine, including ophthalmology, dermatology, cardiology, urology, gynecology, otorhinolaryngology (ORL), neurology, dentistry, orthopaedic surgery and cancer therapy, as well as laser coatings of implants. The final chapter includes the safety precautions with which the staff working with laser instruments must be familiar. With its distinguished editor and international team of contributors, this important book summarizes international achievements in the field of laser applications in medicine in the past 50 years. It provides a valuable contribution to laser medicine by outstanding experts in medicine and engineering.

Le laser n'a pas fini de nous étonner et nous sommes encore loin d'avoir épuisé toutes les possibilités que cette invention, qui a maintenant cinquante ans, offre à nous. En plus de performances qu'on peut qualifier de toujours plus extraordinaires, le champ des applications du laser ne cesse de grandir. Indispensables à notre vie quotidienne avec les lecteurs CD, DVD, Blu-Ray ou codes-barres ; irremplaçables dans l'industrie et les hôpitaux, ils permettent aussi des avancées spectaculaires de la recherche fondamentale : optique quantique, horloges ultra précises, lasers à atomes, tests de la relativité générale. Ce livre préfacé par Charles Townes, prix Nobel et inventeur du laser, a été écrit par les meilleurs spécialistes français du domaine. Après un bref rappel des principes, cet ouvrage offre un panorama des différents types de lasers, des plus petits aux plus puissants. Il effectue un vaste tour d'horizon de leurs applications et donne un aperçu des développements les plus récents. Fabien Bretenaker est directeur de recherche CNRS au laboratoire Aimé Cotton à Orsay et professeur chargé de cours à l'Ecole Polytechnique. Ses recherches concernent la physique des lasers, l'interaction matière-rayonnement, l'optique non-linéaire et le traitement optique des signaux radar. Nicolas Treps est maître de conférences à l'Université Pierre-et-Marie Curie à Paris, chercheur au laboratoire Kastler-Brossel. Ce livre a obtenu le prix Arnulf-Françon 2011 de la Société Française d'Optique. Ce prix récompense la réalisation de supports pédagogiques destinés à l'enseignement de l'Optique dans l'enseignement supérieur.

Since the invention of the first working laser in 1960, development of these devices has progressed at an unprecedented rate, to the extent that the laser is now a common part of everyday life, from the semiconductor laser used in CD players and telecommunication systems to the high power eximer lasers used in manufacturing processes. This book traces the history of the laser, from the first theoretical predictions of stimulated emission made in the 1920s, through the experimental development of masers and lasers in the 50s and 60s, to the advanced applications of lasers in the present day. Along the way it tells the fascinating and at times controversial story of the people behind the discoveries. Written in a style suitable for the general public, it will be of interest to those working within the laser community, and to anyone with an interest in the history of science.
