Nonlinear Fiber Optics (Optics and Photonics)

Nonlinear Fiber Optics (Optics and Photonics)

<p>Since the 4e appeared, a fast evolution of the field has occurred. The 5e of this classic work provides an up-to-date account of the nonlinear phenomena occurring inside optical fibers, the basis of all our telecommunications infastructure as well as being used in the medical field. </p> <p>Reflecting the big developments in research, this new edition includes major new content: slow light effects, which offers a reduction in noise and power consumption and more ordered network traffic-stimulated Brillouin scattering; vectorial treatment of highly nonlinear fibers; and a brand new chapter on supercontinuum generation in optical fibers.</p><ul> <li>Continues to be industry bestseller providing unique source of comprehensive coverage on the subject of nonlinear fiber optics </li> <li>Updated coverage of intrapulse Raman scattering, four-wave mixing, and Harmonic Generation</li> <li>Includes a new chapter excusively devoted to supercontinuum generation in optical fibers </li></ul>
