Lasers, Optics & Photonics

Biography

Ivan Bozovic received his PhD in Solid State Physics from Belgrade University, Yugoslavia, where he was later elected a professor and the Physics Department Konrad Altmann has completed his PhD in Physics from the Ludwig-Maximilian University of Munich, Germany, at 1975. The issue of his thesis was the quantum mechanical description of molecular spectra. For this work, he obtained the marking "with excellence". From 1976 to 1991 he was with the industrial company Messerschmitt-Bolkow-Blohm and developed a computer program for the description of a gas dynamic CO2 laser. From 1991 to 1993 he was with the German Aerospace and developed computer programs and published papers concerning laser beam propagation in the atmosphere. In 1993 he founded the company LAS-CAD GmbH with the purpose to integrate different simulation tools, necessary for the analysis of the multi-physics interaction in solid-state lasers, into the commercial program LASCAD. This program provides the laser engineer with the ability of a quantitative understanding of the complicated effects in laser systems. He has over 25 years of progressively responsible experience in computational physics especially in the fi eld of optics. He wrote more than 40 scientifi c publications in molecular physics, propagation engineering and laser technology and applied for 38 patents, of which 15 have been granted. He also wrote programs for the simulation of laser beam propagation in the atmosphere. In 2014 he was becoming Adjunct Professor of the National Engineering Center for DPSSL of the Chinese Academy of Science.
