The use of lasers which emit infra-red radiation and sophisticated detectors of IR radiation is increasing dramatically: they are being used for long-distance fibre-optic communications and remote environmental monitoring and sensing. Thus they are of interest to the telecommunications industry and the military in particular, where their invisible (to the eye) infrared beam is perfect for rifle laser sights. This book has been designed to bring together what is known on these devices, using an international group of contributors.
