Description
From its inception nearly 30 years ago, the optical subdiscipline now referred to as nonimaging optics, has experienced dramatic growth.
The term nonimaging optics is concerned with applications where imaging formation is not important but where effective and efficient
collection , concentration, transport and distribution of light energy is - i.e. solar energy conversion, signal detection, illumination
optics, measurement and testing. This book will incorporate the substantial developments of the past decade in this field.
Audience:
Advanced undergraduate & graduate students, workers in illumination optics & signal detection, in solar energy conversion, in measurement & testing; members of OSA, SPIE, APS, and Solar energy groups (ASES and ISES) who work in nonimaging optics.
