Photonics: Principles and PracticesPhotonics: Principles and Practices
Since the invention of the laser, our fascination with the photon has led to one of the most dynamic and rapidly growing fields of technology. An explosion of new materials, devices, and applications makes it more important than ever to stay current with the latest advances. Surveying the field from fundamental concepts to state-of-the-art developments, Photonics: Principles and Practices builds a comprehensive understanding of the theoretical and practical aspects of photonics from the basics of light waves to fiber optics and lasers.
Handbook of Optical Metrology: Principles and ApplicationsHandbook of Optical Metrology: Principles and Applications
The field of optical metrology offers a wealth of both practical and theoretical accomplishments, and can cite any number of academic papers recording such. However, while several books covering specific areas of optical metrology do exist, until the pages herein were researched, written, and compiled, the field lacked for a comprehensive handbook, one providing an overview of optical metrology that covers practical applications as well as fundamentals.
Solid State and Quantum Theory for OptoelectronicsSolid State and Quantum Theory for Optoelectronics
Solid State and Quantum Theory for Optoelectronics presents a logical progression of material from the mathematics of linear algebra and Hilbert space to fundamental and perturbed solutions of the Schrödinger wave equation to multi-particle systems, second quantization, and Feynman Path integrals. This book provides applications to bonding, energy band theory including tight binding and k-p theory, electrical transport and density of states, and tensor effective mass. Covering recent developments in quantum computing and teleportation, it also includes a discussion of statistical mechanics and entropy to deduce the Fermi-Dirac and Boltzman distributions.
Optical Methods of Measurement: Wholefield Techniques, Second EditionOptical Methods of Measurement: Wholefield Techniques, Second Edition
Optical Methods of Measurement: Wholefield Techniques, Second Edition provides a comprehensive collection of wholefield optical measurement techniques for engineering applications. Along with the reorganization of contents, this edition includes a new chapter on optical interference, new material on nondiffracting and singular beams and their applications, and updated bibliography and additional reading sections.
Handbook of Optical Sensing of Glucose in Biological Fluids and TissuesHandbook of Optical Sensing of Glucose in Biological Fluids and Tissues
Although noninvasive, continuous monitoring of glucose concentration in blood and tissues is one of the most challenging areas in medicine, a wide range of optical techniques has recently been designed to help develop robust noninvasive methods for glucose sensing. For the first time in book form, the Handbook of Optical Sensing of Glucose in Biological Fluids and Tissues analyzes trends in noninvasive optical glucose sensing and discusses its impact on tissue optical properties.
