Photophysics and photochemistry

V. S. Letokhov
OpenURL
Show Topic
Most effort so far has gone into laser isotope separation, for which several methods are available, but important applications for the future include some interesting topics in biochemistry.

High‐resolution spectroscopy of atoms and molecules

Theodor W. Hänsch
OpenURL
Show Topic
New laser techniques, pulsed and continuous, which make it possible to see optical spectra without Doppler broadening, to label energy levels, and to enhance sensitivity, are now opening new applications.

Coherent Raman spectroscopy

Marc D. Levenson
OpenURL
Show Topic
Once exotic and time‐consuming, wave‐mixing spectroscopy has burgeoned into a set of techniques that can handle systems—flames, plasmas, luminescent crystals—inaccessible to conventional methods.

Coherent optical transients

Richard G. Brewer
OpenURL
Show Topic
A new branch of optical spectroscopy that deals with the optical analogs of spin transients such as NMR is providing unique ways to explore dynamic interactions in optically excited atoms, molecules and solids.

Washington is the site for the sixth CLEA

Bruce C. Carr
OpenURL
Show Topic
Laser theory and applications comprise the program of this biennial conference which will feature presentations from Europe, the Soviet Union, Japan, Canada and the US.
