More DescriptionNonlinear Optics probes in great depth quadratic and cubic nonlinearities, photorefractive nonlinear optics, the nonlinear optical properties of nematic liquid crystals, and photonic bandgap structures. This reference places core physical principles and theoretical concepts in dialogue with contemporary applications and cutting-edge research and relates the essential physics that forms the products and promise of this very fertile field. It posts new developments surrounding dispersion management in nonlinear optical fibers and the combined effects of quadratic and cubic nonlinearities on harmonic generation and reviews linear wave propagation and the origins of optical nonlinearity.
