LASERS AND POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS. A CONTINUING SURVEY.
Abstract
This report contains basic information necessary for the intelligent application of the laser to Federal Aviation Agency problems. An introduction to the theory of laser operation, and a description of the three basic types of lasers (gas, optically pumped and semi-conductor) are included. Three application areas, communication, visual landing guidance, and instrumentation are treated briefly. An annotated bibliography provides additional source material of interest to workers in the field of civil aviation. (Author)
