Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is the third (revised) edition of this book by the same authors. The revision has become necessary because of the many developments in the subject over the last few years. The book is very well written, well explained and well illustrated. ...The authors have collated an impressive collection of data from an even more impressive number of sources (1351). This edition must surely be the benchmark or reference handbook for all those in the non-linear optical field..." Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 1999/32 "It contains a complete description of the properties and applications of all nonlinear optical crystals of practical importance reported in the literature up to now. ...an excellent reference-book." G.B. Rampal, Physicalia, 2000, 36,3 FROM THE REVIEWS OF THE SECOND EDITION "This book is the most comprehensive source on crystal data available and certainly meets the requirements of engineers and scientists who word on development of laser resonators and OPOs." (OPTICS & PHOTONICS NEWS) --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.
