I just wanted to make my readers aware of additional photonics resources on the RP Photonics website:
- There is a downloads page, offering mainly a variety of my articles which appeared in trade journals. Examples for topics are fiber amplifiers and lasers, ultrashort pulse lasers and laser noise.
- Another page hosts the Photonics Quiz with questions (and answers!) on laser technology, optical fibers, and nonlinear optics.
And of course, the entry page of the Photonics Spotlight contains links on all old Spotlight articles.
This article is a posting of the Photonics Spotlight, authored by Dr. Rüdiger Paschotta. You may link to this page, because its location is permanent. See also the Encyclopedia of Laser Physics and Technology.
The Encyclopedia of Laser Physics and Technology is also available in the form of a two-volume book. Maybe you would enjoy reading it also in that form! The print version has a carefully designed layout and can be considered a must-have for any institute library, laser research group, or laser company.
