Nonlinear optics(NLO) is the branch of optics that describes the
behaviour of light in non-linear media, that is, media in which the
dielectric polarisation P responds nonlinearly to the electric
field E of the light. This non-linearity is Typically only observed
at very high light intensities such as those provided by pulsed
lasers. Non-linear optics is of considerable research interest
since it includes: Free space and guided wave non-linear optics;
Weak (second and third order etc. effects) and strong
(non-perturbative)nonlinearities: Fast (electronic fs timescale)
and slow (thermal ms timescale) nonlinearities; Novel non-linear
materials; Numerical simulation of nonlinear optical propagation;
Applications of non-linear optics in fields such as signal
processing, optical communications, holographic memory and soliton
phenomena. This Advanced book provides the latest research from
around the globe in this fast-moving field.
