Progress in Optics, 48
Description
In the thirty-seven years that have gone by since the first volume of Progress in Optics was published, optics has become one of the most
dynamic fields of science. At the time of inception of this series, the first lasers were only just becoming operational, holography
was in its infancy, subjects such as fiber optics, integrated optics and optoelectronics did not exist and quantum optics was the domain
of only a few physicists. The term photonics had not yet been coined. Today these fields are flourishing and have become areas of specialisation
for many science and engineering students and numerous research workers and engineers throughout the world. Some of the advances in these
fields have been recognized by awarding Nobel prizes to seven physicists in the last twenty years. The volumes in this series which have
appeared up to now contain nearly 190 review articles by distinguished research workers, which have become permanent records for many
important developments. They have helped optical scientists and optical engineers to stay abreast of their fields. There is no sign that
developments in optics are slowing down or becoming less interesting. We confidently expect that, just like their predecessors, future
volumes of Progress in Optics will faithfully record the most important advances that are being made in optics and related fields.
Audience
Researchers, professors, (post) graduate students, Academic and corporate libraries in the field of optics
