Description and Table of Contents
Description
Aimed at both students and those in professional research, this volume contains an examination of the physics and chemistry of fibre optics systems. Topics include the role of fibre waveguides, waveguide types, fabrication techniques, optical waveguide design considerations and evaluation techniques. The text assumes that the reader has a relatively broad scientific training, equivalent to that normally covered in the first two years of a university curriculum for a technical degree. It can serve as a textbook for the senior year of a technical undergraduate degree course or for a postgraduate course. The book will also be of benefit to engineers working in the field of optics, as it can be used as a reference guide and should add to their understanding of the subject.
