  • Paperback

Intended for readers with a background in classical electromagnetic theory, this book develops the basic principles that underline nonlinear optical phenomena in matter. It begins with a discussion of linear wave propagation in dispersive media, moves into weak nonlinearities which can be discussed in a pertuberative manner, then it examines strong nonlinear effects (solitons and chaos). Two new chapters cover surface optics and magneto-optic phenomena. 45 illus.

From the publisher

Since the book was first published in 1991, the field of surface nonlinear optics has grown substantially to the point where an exposition of the principles of this field will prove useful to many. Thus, in this second edition, Chapter 8 addresses this area. Also, optical probes of magnetism of very thin films and multilayers are now widely used, and magneto-optic devices of increasing sophistication have appeared. Chapter 9 is thus devoted to magneto-optics, and associated nonlinear phenomena. The earlier chapter on "Chaos" appears as Chapter 10. The philosophy which underlies the first edition was also employed in the writing of the two new chapters. Irvine, CA D.L.Mills March 1998 Preface to the First Edition One intriguing aspect of physics is its dynamic and rapidly evolving nature; exciting new fields can become moribund within relatively few years, only to revive and grow again in a dramatic and explosive manner in response to new developments.

From the rear cover

Nonlinear Optics presents the key concepts of this field, within a framework aimed at the non-specialist versed in classical electromagnetic theory. It will provide the foundation necessary for access to the specialized literature. The following topics are covered, with emphasis on the key, basic concepts: - Linear and Nonlinear Optical Response of Dispersive Media, - Nonlinear Wave Mixing, - Response of Nearly Resonant Two Systems, - Linear and Nonlinear Pulse Propagation in Fibers, - Linear and Nonlinear Surface Optics, - Basic Concepts of Magneto Opitcs, - Introduction to Chaotic Response of Systems
