Free Download Paul-henri Barret, "High-Power and Femtosecond Lasers: Properties, Materials and Applications "
English | ISBN: 1607410095 | 2009 | 483 pages | PDF | 20 MB
There has been a remarkable upsurge in the importance of high power lasers in the past decade. This book presents an overall survey of recent advances in high peak power solid lasers and reviews recent results in the interaction of high power laser pulses with various dielectric materials containing metal nanoparticles. This book also presents the basics as well as the theory of a single crystal photo-elastic modulator and a consideration of modern approaches to the synthesis of diffractive optical elements for technological IR-laser beams focusing. During ultrafast laser interaction with metal, the electrons and lattices are not in equilibrium. This book presents various two-temperature models that can be used to describe the non-equilibrium heat transfer as well as the results of techniques in high power femtosecond laser machining of metals. This book presents an overview of the current state of the art in the field of femtosecond technology with a special emphasis on the research of high-intensity laser-matter interactions. An investigation of non-linear excitation imaging technique including two-photon autofluorescence and second harmonic generated signal imaging is presented to investigate the microstructures of whole-mount corneal, retinal, and scleral tissues in their native environment. Finally, included is a review of recent semi-classical excited-state dynamics simulation results of some complex molecular systems and a report of the dynamics of confined excitons when several exciton states are excited.

Lasers in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery (2024)


Free Download Lasers in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery by Stefan Stübinger, Florian Klämpfl, Michael Schmidt, Hans-Florian Zeilhofer
English | EPUB (True) | 2020 | 269 Pages | ISBN : 3030296032 | 103.2 MB
This book provides surgeons with important insights into laser technologies as well as a sound understanding of their current and potential applications within oral and maxillofacial surgery and related disciplines. The opening chapters focus on the relevant physical background, the technology of the typically used lasers, laser-tissue interactions, and the treatment systems. Detailed information is then provided on the various established applications of laser treatments, including in relation to skin and mucosa and the dental hard tissues and bone. Special applications are also described, for example with respect to periodontal surgery, peri-implantitis therapy, photodynamic treatment, holography and additive manufacturing. The book closes by examining technologies that will soon be available for application in hospitals, topics which are currently the subject of research, and laser safety. Beyond surgeons, the book will be of value for engineers and scientists working in the field of medical engineering using lasers.

Lasers in Dentistry―Current Concepts (Repost)


Free Download Donald J. Coluzzi, Steven P.A. Parker, "Lasers in Dentistry―Current Concepts"
English | 2017 | ISBN: 3319519433, 3319847856 | PDF | pages: 397 | 36.8 mb
This book provides information on the basic science and tissue interactions of dental lasers and documents the principal current clinical uses of lasers in every dental discipline. The applications of lasers in restorative dentistry, endodontics, dental implantology, pediatric dentistry, periodontal therapy, and soft tissue surgery are clearly described and illustrated. Information is also provided on laser-assisted multi-tissue management, covering procedures such as crown lengthening, gingival troughing, gingival recontouring, and depigmentation. The closing chapters look forward to the future of lasers in dentistry and the scope for their widespread use in everyday clinical practice.When used in addition to or instead of conventional instrumentation, lasers offer many unique patient benefits. Furthermore, research studies continue to reveal further potential clinical applications, and new laser wavelengths are being explored, developed, and delivered with highly specific power configurations to optimize laser-tissue interaction. This book will bring the reader up to date with the latest advances and will appeal to all with an interest in the application of lasers to the oral soft and/or hard tissues.
