Guided Wave Optics and Photonic Devices introduces readers to a
broad cross-section of topics in this area, from the basics of
guided wave optics and nonlinear optics to biophotonics. The book
is inspired by and expands on lectures delivered by distinguished
speakers at a three-week school on guided wave optics and devices
organized at the CSIR-Central Glass and Ceramic Research Institute
in Kolkata in 2011. An Introduction to Guided Wave Optics and
Photonic Devices: Principles, Applications, and Future Directions
The book discusses the concept of modes in a guided medium from
first principles, emphasizing the importance of dispersion
properties in optical fibers. It describes fabrication and
characterization techniques of rare-earth-doped optical fibers for
amplifiers and lasers, with an eye to future applications. Avoiding
complex mathematical formalism, it also presents the basic theory
and operational principles of fiber amplifiers and lasers. The book
examines techniques for writing fiber Bragg gratings, which are of
particular interest for smart sensing applications. A chapter
focuses on the fundamental principles of Fourier optics and its
implementation in guided wave optics. In addition, the book
explains the critical phenomena of soliton dynamics and
supercontinuum generation in photonic crystal fiber, including its
fabrication process and characteristics. It also looks at
plasmonics in guided media and nonlinearity in stratified
media-both key areas for future research. The last chapter explores
the importance of lasers in biophotonic applications. Written by
experts engaged in teaching, research, and development in optics
and photonics, this reference brings together fundamentals and
recent advances in one volume. It offers a valuable overview of the
field for students and researchers alike and identifies directions
for future research in guided wave and photonic device technology.
