Lasers: Fundamentals and Applications, serves as a textbook in a course on lasers and their applications for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying lasers, laser applications, and optics and lasers. 

Topics included and discussed in detail include:

laser rate equations

semiclassical theory of lasers

optical resonators

properties of laser beams

fiber lasers

semiconductor lasers

applications of lsers to science and industry

laser induced fusion

Ever since their invention in 1960, lasers have assumed tremendous importance in the fields of science, engineering and technology because of their use both in basic research and in various technological applications.  This book provides a coherent presentation of the basic physics behind the working of the laser along with some of their most important applications, and shows the students how to apply the concepts to practical situations.  This textbook includes worked-out exmaples and exercises to air the student's understanding of the topic, and the preface is geared toward showing lecturers how to match the textbook with their course curricula. 

The book also includes several recent Nobel Lectures, which will further expose students to the emerging applications and excitement of working with lasers.
