Abstract

After the study of basis rules of radiative and non-radiative transition and main spectral properties of the materials, it is necessary to investigate the relationship between the laser performance and the physical properties of the materials and to realize the requirements of laser devices on the material properties. To this end, it is useful to give an outline of fundamentals of solid-state laser, although the detailed discussion is not in the scope of this book.
