It is designed as a technical reference for understanding how mid-infrared fiber lasers are developed, optimized, and applied across scientific, medical, and industrial fields. A central theme of the book is the importance of the 2 µm spectral region. This wavelength range is attractive because it offers eye-safer operation, strong interaction with water and certain gas molecules, compatibility with atmospheric sensing, and potential for nonlinear frequency conversion into longer mid-infrared wavelengths. These properties make 2 µm fiber lasers useful for spectroscopy, sensing, surgery, materials processing, and emerging photonic technologies. The book gives significant attention to rare-earth doped fiber laser systems, especially those based on thulium, holmium, and thulium-holmium co-doped fibers. Another major focus is pulse generation at 2 µm, particularly through Q-switching and mode-locking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDr. Kok-Sing Lim\u003c\/strong\u003e received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of Malaya.
