These notes cover the two main components of the graduate-level Laser Technology course: Laser Device Technology and Nonlinear Optics. The two topics are quite distinct in their approach.
- Laser Device Technology (PDF): This section focuses on the practical and conceptual aspects of laser systems. It is less about mathematical derivations and more about understanding the design, components, and operational principles.
- Nonlinear Optics (PDF): This part is a more theoretical exploration, delving into the rigorous mathematical framework that describes how intense light interacts with materials.
