            Abstract : 
Two discoveries noted in 1961 caused a flood of papers in 1962. Frequency-doubling of coherent light in piezoelectric crystals captured the imagination of scientists everywhere, and resulted in an almost unparalleled concentration of effort. In fact, it was felt necessary to devote a whole section to laser experiments with piezoelectric crystals. The other discovery was the amplification of sound in semiconductors, which was thoroughly described; other related phenomena were investigated.
