A presentation of the most advanced application of optical near-field microscopy to studies of fine metallic structures and related surface plasmons.

A unique book detailing important new techniques for nanoscale optics and spectroscopy and their application in information technology. Written by internationally distinguished scientists, the coverage extends from the basics to the most advanced technologies, system characteristics and methods of manipulation.

Der Grundkurs Theoretische Physik in 4 in sich abgeschlossenen Banden basiert auf langjahrig erprobten Vorlesungen, in denen die Aufbereitung der theoretisch-physikalischen Grundlagen in enger Form mit dem entsprechenden Stoff aus der Mathematik verknupft wird.

1 Theoretische Mechanik

2 Elektrodynamik und Relativitatstheorie

3 Quantenmechanik

4 Thermodynamik und Statistische Physik

Der zweite Band zur Elektrodynamik und Relativitatstheorie erarbeitet schrittweise die Grundlagen der Physik, unterstutzt von einer beiliegenden CD-ROM mit einem auf die...

Systems driven far from thermodynamic equilibrium can create dissipative structures through the spontaneous breaking of symmetries. A particularly fascinating feature of these pattern-forming systems is their tendency to produce spatially confined states. These localized wave packets can exist as propagating entities through space and/or time.

Various examples of such systems will be dealt with in this book, including localized states in fluids, chemical reactions on surfaces, neural networks, optical systems, granular systems, population models, and Bose-Einstein...

Fibre-to-the-Home networks constitute a fundamental telecom segment with the required potential to match the huge capacity of transport networks with the new user communication demands. Huge investments in access network infrastructure are expected for the next decade, with many initiatives already launched around the globe recently, driven by the new broadband service demands and the necessity by operators to deploy a future-proof infrastructure in the field. Dense FTTH Passive Optical Networks (PONs) is a cost-efficient way to build fibre access, and international standards (G/E-PON)...

Basic Electromagnetism and Materials is the product of many years of teaching basic and applied electromagnetism. This textbook can be used to teach electromagnetism to a wide range of undergraduate science majors in physics, electrical engineering, or materials science. However, by making lesser demands on mathematical knowledge than competing texts, and by emphasizing electromagnetic properties of materials and their applications, this textbook is particularly appropriate for students of materials science. Many competing texts focus on the study of propagation waves either in...
