Due to its central role in modern communications technologies,
photonics--or optical electronics--has evolved dynamically over the
last ten years. Photonics by Amnon Yariv and Pochi Yeh is
extensively revised and updated to keep pace with this
unprecedented development. Now more tailored to optical
communication, the sixth edition integrates material on generating
and manipulating optical radiation and designing photonic
components for the transmission of information. It also presents a
broader theoretical underpinning and more explanations of
mathematical derivations than the previous edition.
The text describes the basic physics and principles of operation
of major photonic components in optical communications and
electronics. These components include optical resonators, various
lasers, waveguides, optical fibers, gratings, and photonic
crystals. photonics, Sixth Edition, also covers the transmission,
modulation, amplification, and detection of optical beams in
optical networks, as well as nonlinear optical effects in fibers.
It assumes a background in electromagnetic theory, Maxwell's
equations, and electromagnetic wave propagation.
Including numerous examples throughout, Photonics, Sixth Edition,
is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in
photonics, optoelectronics, or optical communications. It is also a
useful reference for practicing engineers and scientists.
New Material in the Sixth Edition
