With this self-contained and comprehensive text, students will gain
a detailed understanding of the fundamental concepts and major
principles of photonics. Assuming only a basic background in
optics, readers are guided through key topics such as the nature of
optical fields, the properties of optical materials, and the
principles of major photonic functions regarding the generation,
propagation, coupling, interference, amplification, modulation, and
detection of optical waves or signals. Numerous examples and
problems are provided throughout to enhance understanding, and a
solutions manual containing detailed solutions and explanations is
available online for instructors. This is the ideal resource for
electrical engineering and physics undergraduates taking
introductory, single-semester or single-quarter courses in
photonics, providing them with the knowledge and skills needed to
progress to more advanced courses on photonic devices, systems and
applications.
