Laser Spectroscopy 1 (5^th Ed., 5th ed. 2014)
Basic Principles

Keeping abreast of the latest techniques and applications, this new edition of the standard reference and graduate text on laser spectroscopy has been completely revised and expanded. While the general concept is unchanged, the new edition features a broad array of new material, e.g., ultrafast lasers (atto- and femtosecond lasers) and parametric oscillators, coherent matter waves, Doppler-free Fourier spectroscopy with optical frequency combs, interference spectroscopy, quantum optics, the interferometric detection of gravitational waves and still more applications in chemical analysis, medical diagnostics, and engineering.

Introduction.- Absorption and Emission of Light.- Widths and Profiles of Spectral Lines.- Spectroscopic Instrumentation.- Lasers as Spectroscopic Sources.- Solutions.
