Nonlinear optics is attracting attention because of its
applications in telecommunications and its possibilities for
optical computing. Optoelectronics has been singled out by many as
being of considerable strategic importance. Optical fibre
communications shows that optics is already a method of choice;
nonlinear optics offers further improvements in efficiency and
versatility. Textbooks on nonlinear optics are readily available,
concentrating on phenomena and devices rather than on the
materials. Materials for nonlinear optics have developed
considerably, with novel semiconductor structures and organics
attracting much attention. These too are treated in a variety of
books, at a research level. To take advantage of these newer
materials, those who use nonlinear optics may need a source of
information on the materials available and their special
characteristics. At the same time, materials specialists entering
the field of nonlinear optics may need a source of information on
the general features of nonlinear optics. Nonlinear optics also now
forms part of a number of degree and Masters level programmes. This
book is written as an overview of the subject for users of these
materials, graduate level courses and those entering research in
this area. Chapters cover individual classes of materials and try
to provide an authoritative but approachable summary of the
characteristics of each class, with emphasis on the advantages
offered for applications in nonlinear optics. To ensure that the
book is accessible to those not conversant with nonlinear optics,
introductory chapters outline the principle nonlinear optical
phenomena and how these are exploited in device configurations.
