Optical electronics / Ajoy Ghatak and K. Thyagarajan

By: Contributor(s): Material type: TextTextPublication details: New Delhi : CUP, 1994Description: xii, 624 p. : ill. ; 23 cmISBN:
  • 8185618100
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 23rd 535 G411
Summary: Optical Electronics (Ghatak & Thyagarajan) is a comprehensive undergraduate / postgraduate textbook that treats both the foundational physics of wave propagation and modern topics in optical electronics — diffraction and Fourier optics, lasers and laser theory, optical waveguides and fibre optics, electro-optics, acousto-optics and nonlinear optical effects. The book balances theoretical development (Maxwell’s equations, wave propagation, modes, band-structure of optical guides) with practical and experimental context, offering many worked examples and problems that make it suitable for senior undergraduates and beginning graduate students. Its scope and level of treatment make it a standard course text in optics, photonics and optical communications across Indian universities.
