Description
Book SynopsisProvides a particularly good discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media (i.e. , fibers). The only book that treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics. A careful and thorough presentation of the topics that make it well suited for self-study.
Trade Review"...this set provides an excellent course on photonics for the student as well as for the practicing engineer?should be seriously considered by any instructor.... It certainly belongs in any college or university library...as well as any library that considers it to be technical in nature or to have a technical clientele." (
E-Streams, Vol. 6, No. 2, February 2003)
"...a must for all libraries at universities and industrial laboratories..." (Optik, 2003)
