About this book

Fundamentals of Photonics

A complete, thoroughly updated, full-color third edition

Fundamentals of Photonics, Third EditionĀ is a self-contained and up-to-date introductory-level textbook that thoroughly surveys this rapidly expanding area of engineering and applied physics. Featuring a blend of theory and applications, coverage includes detailed accounts of the primary theories of light, includingĀ ray optics, wave optics, electromagnetic optics, andĀ photon optics,Ā as well as the interaction ofĀ light and matter. Presented at increasing levels of complexity, preliminary sections build toward more advanced topics, such asĀ Fourier optics and holography, photonic-crystal optics, guided-wave and fiber optics, LEDs and lasers, acousto-opticĀ and electro-optic devices, nonlinear optical devices, ultrafast optics, optical interconnects and switches,Ā andĀ optical fiber communications.Ā The third edition features an entirely new chapter on theĀ optics of metals and plasmonic devices. Each chapter contains highlighted equations, exercises, problems, summaries, and selected reading lists. Examples of real systems are included to emphasize the concepts governing applications of current interest. Each of the twenty-four chapters of the second edition has been thoroughly updated.
