Electromagnetic Waves and Lasers
This book reviews basic electromagnetic (EM) wave theory and applies it specifically to lasers in order to give the reader not only tangible examples of how the theory is manifested in real life, but also practical knowledge about lasers, and their operation and usage. The latter can be useful for those involved with using lasers. As a short treatise on this subject matter, this book is not intended to dwell deeply into the details of EM waves nor lasers. A bibliography is provided for those who wish to explore in more depth the topics covered in this book. Rather the aim of this book is to offer a quick overview, which will allow the reader to gain a competent general understanding of EM waves and lasers.

About the Author

Dr. Wayne D. Kimura received his Ph.D. in electrical engineering from Stanford University. His first working experience with lasers was in 1975 using an argon ion laser to stop bleeding ulcers. He joined STI Optronics, Inc. in 1982 and is now President of the company. He has performed extensive research in the area of lasers and their applications including work on excimer, Nd:YAG and CO2 lasers; laser-triggered spark-gap switches; laser acceleration of electrons; magnetic field measurements using optical fibers; and advanced accelerator research and development.
