Title information

The low-power helium-neon (He-Ne) gas laser is an invaluable and dependable educational tool, used at all levels from high school physics to complex university installations. Exploring Laser Light is a manual of optics experiments performed with He-Ne lasers, for use in lecture demonstrations, teaching laboratories, and home study experimentation.

Key highlights:
• Offers a broad selection of the most robust optical principles and techniques
• Explores fresh and simplified experimental methods
• Rather than offering a rigid approach, the range and choice of optical bypaths covered point the way for readers
• To help the experimenter, schematic drawings are included, alongside relevant formulas and numerical values for parameters
• The cost of required apparatus is deliberately kept to a minimum

Exploring Laser Light is the ideal resource for the home experimenter as well as the high school physics teacher. Undergraduates to advanced graduate students and faculty in optics, physics will as well benefit.
