Coherent Transients and Pulse Fourier Transform Spectroscopy

  • Conference paper
Laser Spectroscopy III

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Optical Sciences ((SSOS,volume 7))

Abstract

The early practitioners of pulsed NMR would never have dreamed that their sophisticated coherence techniques would one day be adapted to the optical region. Coherent radiation sources were needed, and the laser had yet to be conceived. We now know that the subject of optical coherent transients has steadily grown, beginning with the photon echo measurements of KURNIT, ABELLA, and HARTMANN [1].
