This book presents the basics, technology and applications of ultrashort lasers with pulse durations in the femtosecond range up to a few picoseconds. It gives a comprehensive overview of the principles and applications of ultrashort pulse lasers, especially applied to production technology, materials processing and medicine. Paired with the recent developments in ultrashort pulse lasers, this technology is finding its way into various application fields. Recent advances in laser technology are discussed in detail. The basic technology of the development of reliable and cheap low power laser sources as well as high average power ultrashort pulse lasers for large scale manufacturing is presented. The fundamentals of laser-matter-interaction as well as processing strategies and the required system technology are discussed for these laser sources with respect to precise materials processing. Finally, different applications within medicine, measurement technology or materials processing are highlighted.
