Optics and Lasers: Including Fibers and Optical Waveguides

s*AENDERUNG TITEL This introduction to engineering and applied optics includes not only elementary ray and wave optics but also lasers, holography, coherence, fibers and optical waveguides. It stresses physical principles, applications, and instrumentation, and will be most useful to undergraduates as a comprehensive introductory optics text. Graduate students, practicing engineers, and experimental scientists will also welcome it as an excellent review of the field.
