Progress in Optics - Progress in Optics

Optics has become one of the most dynamic fields of science. This title covers such topics as: 3D optical microscopy; transformation optics and geometry of light; photorefractive solitons; stimulated scattering effects; optical vortices and polarization singularities; and, quantum feedforward control of light.


Marc Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index. Review Quotes: "No volume of Progress in Optics needs a long review: you just need to know that a new one has appeared and to make sure your librarian has a standing order." -- Applied Optics "Such is the standard of the series PROGRESS IN OPTICS that the arrival of a further volume is cause for celebration: one is never disappointed. As usual ... the authors are generally people who have themselves made valuable contributions to their fields of study, leading to articles with the stamp of authority." -- Journal of Modern OpticsTable of Contents: Preface1.
