This book updates Volumes I and II of the Handbook of Laser Science and Technology. Together, these three volumes constitute a comprehensive listing of lasers and laser transitions and should be an important reference for all scientists and engineers working in the area of laser research and development. In the Handbook of Laser Science and Technology, Supplement 1: Lasers, experts summarize the discovery of new lasers and the latest advances in various types of solid state lasers, organic dye and inorganic liquid lasers, neutral, ionized and molecular gas lasers, and masers. The book also includes recent developments in X-ray lasers, free electron lasers, tunable solid state lasers, and fiber lasers. Key features of the supplement are its tables of gas and solid state lasers, arranged by wavelength so researchers can quickly find laser wavelengths for specific applications. Extensive references to the primary literature are provided throughout this supplement.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
Two volumes, more than 1,300 pages, 3,200 cited references, and tabular data galor make this the Cadillac of laser references.
-Lasers & Applications
The editor...has assembled an impressive list of contributors, whose efforts have produced a massive compilation of data. No reference library should be without these two volumes. In the short time that (they) have been in our possession, they have been used many times.
-IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics
...(Volume I) will undoubtedly be used by laser and optics researchers and engineers for many years to come. It is timely and contains a wealth of useful information.
(Volume II) certainly contains everything you want to know about gas lasers; all you have to do is look up either the wavelength or the specie. It is extremely well organized, and, unlike other handbooks, the desired information is easily found and moreover easily understood without having to look up numerous abbreviations.
-Optical Engineering
...not only (are) all basic achievements in the area of research and development of various types of lasers (covered), but also the trends in their further developments. No doubt this handbook will be met with approval by a large circle of engineers and scientists involved in quantum electronics and occupied in related fields.
