Semiconductor-Laser Fundamentals discusses the underlying physics and operational principles of semiconductor lasers. The optical and electronic properties of the semiconductor medium are analyzed in detail, including quantum confinement and gain-engineering effects. The book presents both semiclassical and quantum versions of laser theory, including an analysis of single- and multi-mode operation, instabilities, laser arrays, unstable resonators, and microcavity lasers. This professional reference also includes recent developments in blue-emitting semiconductor lasers.

Do you want to see well — without glasses or contact lenses?

If you have been considering laser eye surgery, here is the definitive guide to the procedure that nearly one million Americans have each year. Written by the doctor who first performed LASIK in the United States, this comprehensive book answers all your questions and alleviates any fears you might have about this safe, effective, and exciting way to restore your vision.

Inside you’ll discover:

• How LASIK, PRK, and other corrective surgeries are performed, and which are right for you

• Who gets the best results from surgery ... and who isn’t a candidate

• The risks, side effects, and precautions you need to know

• How to choose the right procedure

• How to find the best surgeon ... and if you should go to a “mall” clinic

• And much more

Laser Experiments for Beginners provides the perfect blueprint for those who wish to work with one of the most remarkable research tools of the twentieth century: the laser. Ideally suited for high school and university science teachers, the experiments in this book require only a low-cost, low-power red laser (readily available for under $100). This book presents a series of hands-on experiments that can be used for in-class demonstrations or student activities. Included are quick-reference instructions to help the reader identify needed equipment; follow recommended safety practices; and select the desired experiment(s), each of which is rated according to conceptual and experimental difficulty. Developed by renowned Stanford researcher Richard Zare in collaboration with Bertrand Spencer, Dwight Springer, and Matthew Jacobson, Laser Experiments for Beginners will introduce the student to state-of-the-art laser research techniques. It is designed to enhance existing courses in chemistry, physics, and biology.

In Age-less: The Definitive Guide to Botox, Collagen, Lasers, Peels, and Other Solutions for Flawless Skin, world-renowned celebrity dermatologist Dr. Fredric Brandt -- known as both the "Botox Baron" and the "King of Collagen" and acknowledged to be the largest user of both Botox and injectable collagen in the world -- shares the secrets that have made him one of the most sought-after names in skin care today. In this cutting-edge guide to the latest age-reduction techniques and strategies, Dr. Brandt helps readers demystify how to achieve the skin of their dreams and maximize their skin's potential for youthfulness.

Dr. Brandt's solution to obtaining flawless skin lies in a multifaceted approach comprised of three key elements: the all-important damage prevention, an effective at-home skin care regimen using today's most active and technologically advanced ingredients, and nonsurgical cosmetic procedures appropriate for your skin and your goals. In Age-less Dr. Brandt unveils how our seemingly mysterious skin works, explains what damages and prematurely ages the skin, and advises how such damage can be prevented -- and even repaired. Furthermore, he illuminates the very latest developments in at-home skin care and dermatological procedures like acid peels, filler injections, nonburning lasers, and Botox that together will allow individuals to control how they look regardless of their chronological age.

Learn all about:

  • Why the skin behaves the way it does
  • The essential skin care products for flawless skin
  • The unrivaled versatility of Botox, collagen, and other new filler materials
  • The "Botox Face-lift"

Through a series of before and after photographs, Age-less illustrates the benefits, ease, and transformative power of these innovative skin treatments so that men and women alike will quickly learn how to slow down the speeding train that it is the aging process and achieve the youthful look they desire. With Age-less, the most revolutionary and comprehensive guide to rejuvenating skin, Dr. Brandt guides readers to maximum results with the minimum of time investment -- and a beautiful face at any age!

This book treats the interaction of radiation with matter, particular attention being paid to the laser. Knowledge is assumed of the usual half-year introduction to quantum mechanics found in undergraduate physics curricula. The material can be covered in two semesters, or, alternatively, the first part (Chaps. 1-13) can be used as a one-semester course in which quantum-mechanical aspects of the electromagnetic field are ignored. Each chapter is accompanied by problems that illustrate the text and give useful (occasionally new) results.
