fundamentals of photonics 2007 second edition [复制链接]

Now in a new full-color edition,

,Fundamentals of Photonics, Second Editionis a self-contained and up-to-date introductory-level textbook that thoroughly surveys this rapidly expanding area of engineering and applied physics.

Featuring a logical blend of theory and applications

coverage includes detailed accounts of the primary theories of light

including ray optics, wave optics, electromagnetic optics, and photon optics

as well as the interaction of photons and atoms

and semiconductor optics

Presented at increasing levels of complexity, preliminary sections build toward more advanced topics,

such as Fourier optics and holography, guided-wave and fiber optics, semiconductor sources and detectors, electro-optic and acousto-optic devices, nonlinear optical devices, optical interconnects and switches, and optical fiber communications.

Each of the twenty-two chapters of the first edition has been thoroughly updated. TheSecond Editionalso features entirely new chapters on photonic-crystal optics (including multilayer and periodic media, waveguides, holey fibers, and resonators) and ultrafast optics (including femtosecond optical pulses, ultrafast nonlinear optics, and optical solitons).
