This graduate-level text presents the fundamental physics of solid- state lasers, including the basis of laser action and the optical and electronic properties of laser materials. Some knowledge of quantum mechanics and solid-state physics is assumed, but the discussion is as self-contained as possible; the book is an excellent reference and independent study source.
