Summary: a nice book on high power lasers
Review: The authors give almost every details on developing high power lasers. Compared with several other books where the high power lasers are discussed, this book provides far more than the basic physics and device design. I am surprised that the authors cover such a wide range of issues related. In particular, some very important issues which the industry care about very much, such as facet coating, heat dissipation, cooling and package, are explained and described. Since the authors are writing on the basis of their own experience, this book is sure to be a good reference book for either industry people or the people from universities.

Summary: a very nice book for high power lasers
Review: The authors in this book give almost every details on developing high power semiconductor lasers. If you are dveloping the high power laser for either industrial products or research, this book is a good reference. I am surprised that such various details are coverd in this book. Compared with some other books where the design and physics for high power laser are addressed, this book appears to provide more details for readers. The authors are writing their own experience, which I believe it very valuable. The important parameters which the industry people care about, are explained and described, such as facet coating, heat dissipation and device package, which I thought the authors may write more about. Since the materials in this book provide far beyond physics and device design, it is sure to be welcomed from both the industry and the universities where the intense research is under the way.
