Abstract: The present thesis is concerned with various aspects of the interaction of light with matter. It is divided into four parts. In part I we study the competition between self-phase modulation (SPM) and Stimulated Raman scattering (SRS). In part II we study a realistic model for the unstable loaded optical resonator in the paraxial wave approximation. Part III is concerned with the possibility of utilizing optical power to directly drive a refrigerator. Part IV is concerned with the nature of the energy band structure of solids in an external laser field.
