Die moderne Datenverarbeitung verlangt nach immer groeren Speichermedien und schnelleren Ubertragungsraten. Optische Systeme, wie sie zum Beispiel die CD-Technologie oder die Glasfaser darstellen, bieten in vielen Fallen die leistungsfahigeren und billigeren Losungen. Das vorliegende Buch bietet einen Einstieg in die spannende Technologie der Photonik. Nach der Behandlung der Grundlagen der Lichtausbreitung (Brechung, Beugung, Streuung, Polarisation, ...) wird die Physik passiver und aktiver Bauelemente erlautert. Schlielich werden Systemanwendungen in der Informationstechnik wie...
