Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology - Optics

9 years has handed because the 1992 moment variation of the encyclopedia was once released. This thoroughly revised 3rd version, that's a college point compendium of chemistry, molecular biology, arithmetic, and engineering, is refreshed with a number of articles approximately present learn in those fields. for instance, the recent variation has an elevated emphasis on info processing and biotechnology, reflecting the quick progress of those parts. the continued Editor-in-Chief, Robert Meyers, and the Board ready a brand new topical define of actual technology and expertise to outline whole insurance. part editors are both Nobel Laureates or editors of key journals of their fields. extra Board contributors representing the worldwide clinical group have been additionally recruited.

19 was used to realize a GMR laser mirror. The flat output mirror of the dye laser with broadband output (800–920 nm) was replaced with the GMR filter and the birefringent tuning element removed. Lasing occurred at a wavelength of ∼860 nm. The laser power was ∼100 mW when pumped with an Ar+ laser emitting a power of ∼5 W at a 514-nm wavelength. 3 nm. This linewidth was set by the GMR filter linewidth at the threshold reflectance for laser oscillation to occur; in this case at ∼95% reflectance value in Fig.
