    • Heat transfer studies of strontium recombination lasers 

      Pugsley, Trevor R. (University of St Andrews, 1995-07) - Thesis
      Thermal loading models have been developed in order to predict the optimum input powers of free-convection cooled strontium recombination lasers (SRLs) and forced-convection cooled SRLs. Gas temperature models have also ...

    • Tunable femtosecond lasers with low pump thresholds 

      Oppo, Karen (University of St Andrews, 1996-07) - Thesis
      The work in this thesis is concerned with the development of tunable, femtosecond laser systems, exhibiting low pump threshold powers. The main motive for this work was the development of a low threshold, self-modelocked ...

    • Development of all-solid-state modelocked laser sources at 1.55 μM 

      Valentine, Gareth J. (University of St Andrews, 1999-03) - Thesis
      This thesis concerns the generation of tunable ultrashort pulses near the 1.55 mum telecommunications window. Two principal laser systems are considered: i) the NaCl:OH colour-centre laser, which employs the technique of ...

    • The design of a two-level solid-state maser 

      Campbell, Colin Kydd (University of St Andrews, 1960-07) - Thesis
      Abstract not Provided

    • Diode-pumped IμM neodymium lasers and their internal frequency doubling 

      Yelland, Carl (University of St Andrews, 1997-06) - Thesis
      In this thesis the design, construction and performance of several diode-laser pumped continuous-wave neodymium lasers are described. These lasers were operated both around 1 mum and, by internal frequency-doubling, at 0.5 ...
