Reviews:

Maddeningly peppered with errors but indispensable
Where to start on the errors which propagated per so many revisions? Equations are inaccurately put in reference in the text that some figures have problems. See fig 8.30, the revision p513 5th where the curves Xopt and Yopt seem to be commutated for Juste an example. The best part about the book is the synopsis of materials and the references, of which you often need. My personal note with Mr. Koechner: Dear Sir pleasant, please publish errata for this book. I do not want to say any irreverence, it is the best reference of his kind. However, it could be improved appreciably.


The Laser Engineer's Bible
Whoever which must conceive or work with the lasers with semiconductors should have a copy of this book!


Ideal for entry level or senior SS laser engineer
This is a SSL classic, and the 5th Ed. is perfect.


A good source of information about solid state lasers
The book is very thorough in its coverage of the physics of and design of a wide variety of solid state lasers. Plenty of examples of laser performance are included. The book assumes a senior or first year graduate school level of knowledge for the theory discussions of the first few chapters. There is enough useful information to make the book valuable for the professional laser engineer, as well.
