Optics and Lasers is an introduction to engineering andapplied optics, including not only elementary ray and waveoptics, but also lasers, holography, copherence, fibers, andoptical waveguides. It stresses physicalprinciples, applications, and instrumentation. It will be most usefullto the practicing engineer or experimental scientist, graduate student, or advanced undergraduate. It containsmore than enough material from which to selelct the core ofan introctory optics course and sufficientto form the bulkof a more advanced course.

Gyrotron oscillators (gyrotrons) are capable of providing hundreds of kilo- watts of power at microwave and millimetric wavelengths. From their con- ception in the late fifties until their successful development for various ap- plications, gyrotrons have come a long way technologically and made an ir- reversible impact on both users and developers. The possible applications of high power millimeter and sub-millimeter waves from gyrotrons and their variants (gyro-devices) span a wide range of technologies. The plasma physics community has already taken advantage of the recent advances of...

In 1989, after several years of discussion and negotiation, the Regional Econornics Applications Laboratory (REAL) was formed. This unique relationship between the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has been a significant source of intellectual inspiration for many students, visiting colleagues and members of the participating institutions for the past decade. The idea for REAL was hatched by Philip Israilevich and Geoffrey Hewings in typical Chicago style - in the back room of a local bar. In early December 1997, their collaboration came to an...

Broader bandwidths, denser channel spacing, and higher signal intensities all makes nonlinear effects more critical to the performance of telecommunications systems. This comprehensive and didactic overview explores the nonlinear effects from a physical point of view and discusses the implications for signal capacity. Enriched with practical considerations and experimental results, the book offers special chapters dealing with applications of nonlinear effects for signal processing, ultrafast-optical switching, wavelength conversion, nonlinear amplification, and optical phase-conjugation....

Since the 1997 publication of "Silicon Carbide - A Review of Fundamental Questions and Applications to Current Device Technology" edited by Choyke, et al., there has been impressive progress in both the fundamental and developmental aspects of the SiC field. So there is a growing need to update the scientific community on the important events in research and development since then. The editors have again gathered an outstanding team of the world's leading SiC researchers and design engineers to write on the most recent developments in SiC. The book is divided into five main categories:...
