Description for Optical Waves in Layered Media
Paperback. Bridges the gap between theory and practice by employing numerical examples based on real-life situations. This book uses only classical electrodynamics in dealing with the interaction of light with matter, except in the last chapter on quantum wells. Series: Wiley Series in Pure and Applied Optics. Num Pages: 416 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TTB. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 233 x 160 x 23. Weight in Grams: 622.
Optical Waves in Layered Media presents a clear picture of the propagation of optical waves in layered media and teaches the reader how to design and analyze optical devices using such media. Starting from the simplest case of plane wave propagation in homogeneous media, the author introduces a new matrix method for studying the optical properties of multilayer structures consisting of isotropic materials. He then describes propagation in anisotropic layered media and in inhomogeneous layers, guided waves, the coupling of modes, and the optical properties of superlattices and quantum wells.
