The Essence of Dielectric Waveguides provides an overview of the fundamental behavior of guided waves, essential to finding and interpreting the results of electromagnetic waveguide problems. Clearly and concisely written as well as brilliantly organized, this volume includes a detailed description of the fundamentals of electromagnetics, as well as a new discussion on boundary conditions and attenuation. It also covers the propagation characteristics of guided waves along classical canonical dielectric structures - planar, circular cylindrical, rectangular and elliptical waveguides....

In diesem Buch werden zunachst die verschiedenen Typen von Plasmen ausfuhrlich beschrieben: Gleichstrom-Entladung, kapazitive und induktive Kopplung mit Radiofrequenz, die magnetfeldunterstutzte Anregung mittels Heliconwellen; schliesslich noch Ionenstrahlen. Breiten Raum nimmt dann die Plasmadiagnostik ein, die in einem separaten Kapitel mit vier Methoden exemplarisch vorgestellt wird. Daran anschliessend erfolgt eine umfassende Darstellung der beiden modernen Verfahren Sputtern und Trockenatzen, mit denen heute Oberflachen durch Beschichten und gezieltes Abtragen auf vielfaltige Weise...

New possibilities have recently emerged for producing optical beams with complex and intricate structures, and for the non-contact optical manipulation of matter. Structured Light and Its Applications fully describes the electromagnetic theory, optical properties, methods and applications associated with this new technology. Detailed discussions are given of unique beam characteristics, such as optical vortices and other wavefront structures, the associated phase properties and photonic aspects, along with applications ranging from cold atom manipulation to optically driven...

Altogether, the book offers a unique integration of organic materials science basics, nanostructured organic materials fabrication, and device applications.

The book presents the current state of studies of point defects, both intrinsic and extrinsic (impurities, radiation centers, etc.) in LiNbO3. The contribution of intrinsic defects to photoinduced charge transport, i.e. to the photorefraction, is explained. The photorefractive and optical properties of LiNbO3 crystals with different stoichiometry and of those doped with so-called "optical-damage resistant" impurities controlling the intrinsic defect structure are described in detail. Applications are the problem of non-erasable recording of photorefractive holograms in LiNbO3 and the...

Engineering Optics is a book for students who want to apply their knowledge of optics to engineering problems, as well as for engineering students who want to acquire the basic principles of optics. It covers such important topics as optical signal processing, holography, tomography, holographic radars, fiber optical communication, electro- and acousto-optic devices, and integrated optics (including optical bistability). Practical examples, such as the video disk, the Fresnel zone plate, and many more, appear throughout the text, together with numerous solved exercises. There is an...

Defects in semiconductors have been studied for many years, in many cases with a view toward controlling their behaviour through various forms of defect engineering . For example, in the bulk, charging significantly affects the total concentration of defects that are available to mediate phenomena such as solid-state diffusion. Surface defects play an important role in mediating surface mass transport during high temperature processing steps such as epitaxial film deposition, diffusional smoothing in reflow, and nanostructure formation in memory device fabrication. Charged Defects in...

Gettering Defects in Semiconductors fulfills three basic purposes:

- to systematize the experience and research in exploiting various gettering techniques in microelectronics and nanoelectronics;

- to identify new directions in research, particularly to enhance the perspective of professionals and young researchers and specialists;

- to fill a gap in the contemporary literature on the underlying semiconductor-material theory.

The authors address not only well-established gettering techniques but also describe contemporary trends in gettering technologies from an international...
