Optical Engineering
“…provides an excellent survey of nonlinear optical materials and macroscopic phenomena…. “an outstanding reference book….It is practical and quite readable.”
Book Description
Examining the fundamental principles and formulations of nonlinear optics (NLO), this comprehensive, single-source reference presents practical formulas for use in a variety of experimental and design situations, current applications of NLO to specific technical problems, the latest device and materials data, and state-of-the-art methods for characterizing new materials–supplying much-needed continuity in nomenclature and the use of physical units.
