Photonic Crystals : The Road from Theory to Practice Hardback
by Steven G. Johnson, John D. Joannopoulos
Hardback
Description
Photonic Crystals: The Road from Theory to Practice explores the theoretical road leading to the practical application of photonic band gaps.
These new optimal devices are based on symmetry and resonance and the benefits and limitations of hybrid "two dimensional" slab systems in three dimensions.
The book also explains that they also signify a return to the ideal of an omnidirectional band gap in a structure inspired by and emulating the simplicity of two dimensions.
Finally, the book takes a look at computational methods to solve the mathematical problems that underlie all undertakings in this field. Photonic Crystals: The Road from Theory to Practice should rapidly bring the optical professional and engineer up to speed on this intersection of electromagnetism and solid-state physics.
It will also provide an excellent addition to any graduate course in optics.
