Optical materials

  • Characterization of Optical Materialsby Gregory J. Exarhos

    Momentum Press 2010; US$ 81.00

    Optical materials are prized for their properties such as reflection, refraction, absorption, emission, scattering, and diffraction of light in wavelengths ranging from 100 nm to 10 mm. Because small surface or atomic structure defects can have significant affects on those properties, characterization techniques that are sensitive to structures at... more...

  • Information Optics and Photonicsby Thierry Fournel; Bahram Javidi

    Springer 2010; US$ 99.99

    This book will address the advances, applications, research results, and emerging areas of optics, photonics, computational approaches, nano-photonics, bio-photonics, with applications in information systems. The objectives are to bring together novel approaches, analysis, models, and technologies that enhance sensing, measurement, processing, interpretation,... more...

  • Introduction to Complex Mediums for Optics and Electromagneticsby Werner S. Weiglhofer; Akhlesh Lakhtakia

    SPIE 2003; US$ 87.55

    Complex-mediums electromagnetics (CME) describes the study of electromagnetic fields in materials with complicated response properties. This truly multidisciplinary field commands the attentions of scientists from physics and optics to electrical and electronic engineering, from chemistry to materials science, to applied mathematics, biophysics, and... more...

  • Laser-Induced Damage of Optical Materialsby Roger M. Wood

    CRC Press 2003; US$ 107.95

    Understanding damage mechanisms is fundamental to good design of laser products operating at high power. This work describes how the physical and chemical properties of laser materials combine to affect the power and energy handling capabilities of these materials and the systems they are used for. more...

  • Optical Materialsby Joseph Simmons; Kelly S. Potter

    Elsevier Science 1999; US$ 155.00

    This book presents, in a unified form, the underlying physical and structural processes that determine the optical behavior of materials. It does this by combining elements from physics, optics, and materials science in a seamless manner, and introducing quantum mechanics when needed. The book groups the characteristics of optical materials into classes... more...

  • Optical Materials and Applicationsby Moriaki Wakaki; Takehisa Shibuya; Keiei Kudo

    CRC Press 2012; US$ 139.95

    The definition of optical material has expanded in recent years, largely because of IT advances that have led to rapid growth in optoelectronics applications. Helping to explain this evolution, Optical Materials and Applications presents contributions from leading experts who explore the basic concepts of optical materials and the many typical applications... more...

  • Optical materialsby Roger. M. Wood

    The Institute of Materials. Minerals and Mining 1993; US$ 100.00

    Introduction; molecular and crystal structure; physical properties; optical properties of linear materials; optically non-linear materials; laser materials; detector materials; fibre / integrated optics; liquid crystals; power handling capability of optical materials more...

  • Physical Properties and Data of Optical Materialsby Moriaki Wakaki

    CRC Press 2007; US$ 165.95

    This conveniently crafted guide presents the physical and optical properties of more than 100 of the most important and widely used optical materials. For each material, the editors examine the crystal system; natural and artificial growth and production methods along with corrosives and processing; thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties; optical... more...

  • Spectroscopic Properties of Rare Earths in Optical Materialsby Guokui Liu; Bernard Jacquier

    Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 249.99

    Aimed at researchers and graduate students, this book provides up-to-date information about the electronic interactions that impact the optical properties of rare earth ions in solids. Its goal is to establish a connection between fundamental principles and the materials properties of rare-earth activated luminescent and laser optical materials. The... more...
