  • Thin-Film Crystalline Silicon Solar Cellsby Rolf Brendel

    Wiley 2011; US$ 182.00

    This introduction to the physics of silicon solar cells focuses on thin cells, while reviewing and discussing the current status of the important technology. An analysis of the spectral quantum efficiency of thin solar cells is given as well as a full set of analytical models. This is the first comprehensive treatment of light trapping techniques for... more...

  • Airglow as an Indicator of Upper Atmospheric Structure and Dynamicsby Vladislav Yu. Khomich; Anatoly I. Semenov; Nicolay N. Shefov

    Springer 2008; US$ 229.99

    The book summarizes international progress over the last few decades in upper atmosphere airglow research. Measurement methods, theoretical concepts and emprircal models of a wide spectrum of upper atmospheric emissions and their variability are considered. The book contains a detailed bibliography of studies related to the upper atmosphere airglow... more...

  • Laser Beam Propagation through Random Mediaby Larry C. Andrews; Ronald L. Phillips

    SPIE 2005; US$ 96.05

    Since publication of the first edition of this text in 1998, there have been several new, important developments in the theory of beam wave propagation through a random medium, which have been incorporated into this second edition. Also new to this edition are models for the scintillation index under moderate-to-strong irradiance fluctuations; models... more...

  • Laser Remote Sensingby Takashi Fujii

    CRC Press 2005; US$ 189.95

    Written for atmospheric scientists familiar with laser remote sensor (Lidar) theory and operation, this dense volume presents the new femtosecond white light lidar, elastic lidar measurement of the troposphere, and differential absorption lidar methods for monitoring trace gases in the planetary boundary layer. The longest chapter describes the mea more...

  • Field Guide to Atmospheric Opticsby Larry C. Andrews

    SPIE 2004; US$ 24.99

    The material in this Field Guide includes a review of classical Kolmogorov turbulence theory, Gaussian-beam waves in free space, and atmospheric effects on a propagating optical wave. These atmospheric effects have great importance in a variety of applications like imaging, free space optical communications, laser radar, and remote sensing. This Guide... more...

  • Adaptive Beaming and Imaging in the Turbulent Atmosphereby Vladimir P. Lukin; Boris V. Fortes

    SPIE 2002; US$ 45.90

    Due to the wide application of adaptive optical systems, an understanding of optical wave propagation in randomly inhomogeneous media has become essential, and several numerical models of individual AOS components and of efficient correction algorithms have been developed. This monograph contains detailed descriptions of the mathematical experiments... more...

  • Out of the Blueby John Naylor

    Cambridge University Press 2002; US$ 64.00

    Why is the sky blue? How can I see an eclipse? Skywatcher John Naylor offers practical advice on where and when you should look for natural phenomena in both the day and night sky. Out of the Blue is for all those curious or puzzled about things optical and astronomical. more...
