Nanostructures and Quantum Effects documents the most recent developments in the field of quantum effects in semiconductor nanostructures such as quantum wires and boxes.
Laser Ablation provides a broad picture of the current understanding of laser ablation and its many applications, from the views of key contributors to the field.
Progress made during the last few years in nonlinear opticsand quantum electronics has significantly increased ourunderstanding of the interactionbetween light and matter.
The 1990 International Topical Meeting on Photonic Switching was held April 12-14, 1990, in Kobe, Japan, in conjunction with the 1990 International Meet- ing on Optical Computing.
This volume contains the proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute on "e;Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) in Medicine"e; held in Evian, France, October 14- 26, 1990.
Nonlinear photonics is the name given to the use of nonlinear optical devices for the generation, communication, processing, or analysis of information.
Ausgehend von den Grundlagen der Laserphysik und der biologischen Wirkung von Laserstrahlung beantwortet dieses Buch umfassend alle Fragen des Laser-Strahlenschutzes: Die Meßmethoden für Laserstrahlung, die zulässigen Strahlungswerte, die relevanten technischen Regeln, das System der Laserklassen und die organisatorischen und apparativen Schutzmaßnahmen sind ausführlich dargestellt.
These proceedings are the result of the third international workshop on Desorption Induced by Electronic Transitions, DIET III, which took place on Shelter Island, NY, May.
The trend towards miniaturisation of microelectronic devices and the search for exotic new optoelectronic devices based on multilayers confer a crucial role on semiconductor interfaces.
Over the past five years, there has been an enormous increase in the inter- est in and understanding of electronic and optoelectronic devices operating in the picosecond (multigigahertz) range.
Of the variety of nonlinear dynamical systems that exhibit deterministic chaos optical systems both lasers and passive devices provide nearly ideal systems for quantitative investigation due to their simplicity both in construction and in the mathematics that describes them.
This volume contains notes based on the lectures delivered at the fourth New Zealand Symposium in Laser Physics, held at the University of Waikato, Hamilton, February 10-15, 1986.
This volume is based on lectures and contributed papers presented at the Eleventh Course of the International School of Materials Science and Tech- nology that was held in Erice, Sicily, Italy at the Ettore Majorana Center for Scientific Culture during the period 6-17 July 1986.
The aim of this book is to give a comprehensive description of the basic methods used in the ultraviolet spectroscopy of proteins, to discuss new trends and development of these methods, and to analyze their different applications in the study of various aspects of protein structure and dynamics.
This book is devoted primarily to the various kinds of resonant nonlinear in- teractions of light with two-level (or, in many cases, multilevel) systems.
This research monograph presents a systematic treatment of the theory of the propagation of transient electromagnetic fields (such as optical pulses) through dielectric media which exhibit both dispersion and absorption.
The phenomenon of Extended X-Ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) has been known for some time and was first treated theoretically by Kronig in the 1930s.
Ten years ago the author, together with eight co-authors, edited a textbook Remote Sensing for Environmental Sciences within the series on Ecological Studies of Springer-Verlag.
