After a historical overview, the book starts with a review of the basic concepts of laser physics Chap.
Analytical expressions of the threshold condition, gain, and output of laser oscillators are derived in Chap. An oscillator followed by one or more ampli? Energy storage and gain of ampli? Four chapters deal with the basic subsystems of solid-state lasers. These are the active medium, the optical resonator, the pumping system, and the thermal mana- ment.
Properties of solid-state laser hosts and active ions are reviewed in Chap. ThermoOptic Effects.

The response from readers has shown that the comprehensive treatment of the subject makes the work useful also to students of laser physics who want to supplement their theoretical knowledgewiththeengineeringaspectsoflasers.

Written from an industrial perspective, Solid-State Laser Engineering discusses in detail the characteristics, design, construction, and performance of solid-state. The first decade of solid-state Iaser technology has seen the development of an enormous number of lasing materials and a!arge variety of interesting design.
