Opis

Within the text the authors summarize the discovery and properties of new optical materials. Included are thr latest advances in optical crystals, glasses and plastics, laser host materials, phase conjunction materials, linear electrooptic materials, elastooptic materials, photorefractive materials, liquid crystals and thin films and coatings. The book also includes expanded coverage of optical waveguard materials, ansd new sections on glass fibre lasers, diamond optics and graded index materials.

Recenzje

"As in earlier volumes, the contributors are experts in their fields and high quality has been maintained. New sections cover optic liquids, magneto-optic liquids, gradient index materials, diamond optics, and thin film coatings for high power lasers...In sum, this is another useful volume for scientists and engineers from the efficient editor of a respected reference series."
