Book Description
An analysis which deals with Soviet gas-laser research is part of a continuing survey of Soviet theoretical and experimental developments in the general maser field. Published Soviet reports on gas-laser development fall readily into a well-defined area and characterize a fairly independent research effort which has little connection with any other aspects of Soviet work in quantum electronics. Soviet scientists engaged in gas-laser work have remained within its coundaries, at least as far as quantum electronics is concerned. (Author).
