This book covers four major topics of integrated photonics: 1)
fundamental principles of electromagnetic theory; 2) waveguides; 3)
simulation of waveguide modes, and 4) photonic structures. The
first part of the text explores the basis for optical propagation
and establishes the use of the MKS system, discussing the wave
equation and the properties of materials such as attenuation and
dispersion. The next section explores the operation of optical
waveguides. We start with planar slab waveguides, then
systematically advance to more complicated structures, such as
graded index waveguides, circular waveguides, and rectangular
waveguides. The details of coupling light between and within
waveguide modes is clearly described, and applied to the
examination of photonic bandgap crystals and optical devices such
as arrayed waveguides. The final section of the text discusses
optoelectronic devices such as modulators and switches. These
topics are very active areas of research today, and are likely to
increase in significance as they mature.
From the beginning Integrated Photonics introduces numerical
techniques for studying non-analytic structures. Most chapters have
numerical problems designed for solution using a computational
program such as Matlab or Mathematica. An entire chapter is devoted
to one of the numeric simulation techniques being used in
optoelectronic design (the Beam Propagation Method), and provides
opportunity for students to explore some novel optical structures
without too much effort. Small pieces of code are supplied where
appropriate to get the reader started on the numeric work.
Integrated Photonics is designed for the senior/first year graduate
student, andrequires a basic familiarity with electromagnetic
waves, and the ability to solve differential equations with
boundary conditions.
