| book description |
Rare-Earth-Doped Fiber Lasers and Amplifiers, Third Edition, provides an in-depth description of the basic principles, operating characteristics, theoretical models, and current technology of the main fiber lasers and amplifiers based on rare-earth-doped silica, fluorozirconate, and other non-oxide fibers. Written by some of the most prominent experts in the field, it contains new and revised material reflecting major developments in academia and industry. It starts with a review of the main fiber fabrication techniques and fundamental optical and electronic properties of rare-earth-doped glasses. It goes on to present in individual chapters theoretical models, designs, and optical properties of a wide range of rare-earth-doped fiber light sources, including continuous-wave lasers, Q-switched lasers, and mode-locked lasers, ultrafast amplifiers, and high-power lasers and amplifiers. Separate chapters are devoted to devices utilizing rare-earth-doped infrared-transmitting glass fibers, visible fluoride fiber lasers, to thulium-doped mode-locked fiber lasers around 2 µm, and broadband fiber sources. Finally, this book reviews in detail the principles and properties of erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, a cornerstone component in existing optical communication systems. This book is intended for laser and optical engineers, telecommunication engineers, network and system engineers, applied physicists, and electronic engineers.

This first comprehensive biography of Cecil Rhodes in a generation illuminates Rhodes’s vision for the expansion of imperialism in southern Africa, connecting politics and industry to internal development, and examines how this fueled a lasting, white-dominated colonial society.
