Photonics: Optical Electronics in Modern Communications (The Oxford Series in Electrical and Computer Engineering)

Photonics, Sixth Edition is an extensively revised and updated text on optical electronics that has evolved dynamically over the last ten years.

This comprehensive guide covers the basic physics and principles of operation of major photonic components in optical communications and electronics, including optical resonators, lasers, waveguides, optical fibers, gratings, and photonic crystals.

The text also discusses the transmission, modulation, amplification, and detection of optical beams in optical networks, as well as nonlinear optical effects in fibers. With a background in electromagnetic theory, Maxwell's equations, and electromagnetic wave propagation, this book is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in photonics, optoelectronics, or optical communications.

It is also a useful reference for practicing engineers and scientists. The sixth edition includes new material on Stokes Parameters and Poincaré Sphere, Fermat's Principle, Matrix Formulation, and more.
