Advances in laser engineering and applications; Proceedings of the Seminar, San Diego, CA, July 31, August 1, 1980
Abstract
Topics discussed include advanced or newly available lasers, lasers in manufacturing applications, and lasers in measurement and diagnostics. Particular papers are presented on the pressurization of nuclear fuel rods using laser welding, optically pumped far infrared lasers, waveguide CO2 lasers, color center lasers, excimer laser technology, and the RF modulation of high-power GaAlAs laser diode arrays. Also considered are a pulse transmission mode Nd:YAG laser for airborne hydrography, and acoustooptic deflection applied to a laser tracker.
