A two-volume set covering Photonics for fiber and integrated optics. These volumes each stand
alone as valuable information resources but together the set represents the most comprehensive
treatment of photonics currently available.
The volumes are self-contained and suitable as textbooks for a two-semester course
Provides a discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media
Treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics
Careful and thorough presentation of the topics that makes it well suited for
courses and self study
Includes numerous figures, problems and worked-out solutions
Heavily illustrated with over 400 figures specially formatted to aid in
Comprehension
This text would prove to be a valuable reference resource for Engineers working in Photonics
Research; Engineers in Industry Designing Communication Systems; Undergraduate and Graduate
Students
