Beam shaping from phase information.Full-text restricted to subscribers or individual document purchasers.This book explores modern laser-based microprocessing techniques, combining theory with practical guidance on building and operating experimental setups. It begins with an introduction to optics, covering electromagnetic field theory, ray optics, and the Lorentz model. Core laser physics and ultrafast laser systems are discussed, along with hands-on measurement techniques. The book then covers optomechanical systems, including setup, alignment, and control. Advanced laser processing methods such as near-field ablation, two-photon polymerization, and laser-induced periodic surface structures are also presented. To support learning, Python scripts used for simulations and graphs are included, allowing readers to experiment and deepen their understanding of the concepts.Part of IOP Series in Coherent Sources, Quantum Fundamentals, and Applications.Advanced undergraduate students.Also available in print.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader, EPUB reader, or Kindle reader.Bogdan ?Stef?ani?t?a C?alin is a junior scientific researcher at the Center for Advanced Laser Technologies from the National Institute for Laser, Plasma and Radiation Physics in M?agurele, Bucharest, Romania.
