Written from an industrial perspective, this book discusses the characteristics, design, construction and performance of solid-state lasers. Emphasis is placed on engineering and practical considerations; phenomenological aspects using models are preferred to abstract mathematical derivations. This edition has been updated to account for recent developments in the areas of diode-laser pumping, mode locking, ultrashort-pulse generation and other areas.
