Coherence and Ultrashort Pulse Laser Emission

Front matter

Coherence and Ultrashort Pulse Laser Emission Edited by F. J. Duarte Edited by F. J. Duarte Photo by mansum008 / iStock In this volume, recent contributions on coherence provide a useful perspective on the diversity of various coherent sources of emission and coherent related phenomena of current interest. These papers provide a preamble for a larger collection of contributions on ultrashort pulse laser generation and ultrashort pulse laser phenomena. Papers on ultrashort pulse phenomena include works on few cycle pulses, high-power generation, propagation in various media, to various applications of current interest. Undoubtedly, Coherence and Ultrashort Pulse Emission offers a rich and practical perspective on this rapidly evolving field.
