Fundamentals of Optical Fibers offers students a timely,
pedagogically consistent introduction to the fundamental principles
of light propagation in fibers. In it, Professor John A. Buck
reviews, in depth, fundamental waveguiding concepts, the influence
of various fiber structures and materials on light transmission,
nonlinear light propagation effects occurring in fibers, and
various measurement techniques. Since the chief application of
optical fibers is in communication systems, throughout the book the
focus is on topics which pertain to that domain. In the first part
of the text, the author lays the groundwork for later discussions
with a detailed review of the relevant electromagnetic principles
and how they apply to the analysis of wave propagation. He also
introduces basic field equations and delineates the fundamental
principles of dielectric waveguides. In the second part, he
explores the limitations of fiber transmission, paying particular
attention to the problems of loss and dispersion. He reviews
fabrication procedures and alternative fiber designs as they relate
to minimizing loss and dispersion. And he presents field analysis
methods for single mode and multimode fibers having graded index
profiles. In the last part, Professor Buck reviews the basics of
nonlinear optics and discusses the origins of nonlinear effects and
the conditions under which they appear in fibers. This section also
features a discussion of fiber amplifiers, along with a review of
the fundamentals of light amplification by stimulated emission.
Offering a well-balanced presentation of the basics of light
propagation in fibers, and including real-world examples and
end-of-chapter problems, Fundamentalsof Optical Fibers is an
excellent text for senior- to graduate-level courses in electrical
engineering or physics. It is accessible to anyone who has taken at
least a one-semester course in electromagnetics at the
undergraduate level.
