Description
Fundamentals of Optical Waveguides gives a complete theoretical basis of optical fibers and planar lightwave circuits. Fundamental analytical waveguid
...
e theories are introduced and various numerical methods are are presented. Recent topics on planar lightwave circuit (PLC) devices are described including operational principles of arrayed-waveguide grating multiplexers (AWGs) and their applications. Readers will acquire a thorough understanding of optical fibers and waveguides as well as capabilities of designing and simulating novel optical devices.
Key Features
* Thorough and informative description of waveguide theory
* First book dealing with principles and applicaitons of AWGs and PLCs
* Full description of nonlinear optical effects in optical fibers such as optical solitons and four wave mixing etc
* Detailed theory on light coupling phenomena in directional couplers and Bragg gratings
