tailieunhanh - LASERS – APPLICATIONS IN SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY

Recent advents in laser technology and discoveries in laser physics have enabled their very new and exciting applications. Some of them cover production of new materials: nano-particles, periodic structures in nano-scale, and thin films. Others allowed better understanding of laser-matter interaction when sample is subjected to intense laser pulses of various time duration, shape in space and time domains as well as different spectral components contained in a pulse. This allowed control of molecules behavior in electromagnetic field, control of chemical reactions or even direct examination of intra-atomic processes with femtosecond or even attosecond resolution | LASERS - APPLICATIONS IN SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY Edited by Krzysztof Jakubczak Lasers - Applications in Science and Industry Edited by Krzysztof Jakubczak Published by InTech Janeza Trdine 9 51000 Rijeka Croatia Copyright 2011 InTech All chapters are Open Access distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution license which allows users to download copy and build upon published articles even for commercial purposes as long as the author and publisher are properly credited which ensures maximum dissemination and a wider impact of our publications.
