I wish to express my deep gratitude to my advisors, Professor Shalom Raz and Professor David Malah, for their dedicated guidance, warm attitude, enthusiastic discussions and enlightening suggestions throughout all stages of this research. Their continued support and involvement, even during their sabbatical leave, is highly appreciated. I was very fortunate for the opportunity to work with them. I am grateful to Dr Moshe Porat for his assistance during the sabbatical leave of Professors Raz and Malah. I would like to thank my colleagues at the Department of Applied Physics, Rafael Labs,
