Optical Waves in Crystals

Bol

As most crystals are generated by crystals, the interaction between light and crystals is vital to the success of any optics-related endevour. This paperback reprint of the classic reference provides a new generation of engineers and physicists with the fundamental knowledge needed to study this complex interaction. The Wiley Classics Library consists of selected books that have become recognized classics in their respective fields. With these new unabridged and inexpensive editions, Wiley hopes to extend the life of these important works by making them available to future generations of mathematicians and scientists. Describes how laser radiation propagates in natural and artificial materials and how the state of radiation can be controlled and manipulated (phase intensity, polarization) by various means. New concepts and useful techniques are described in the problems. Includes many figures, tables, and examples.
