Progress in Optics,
Description
Optics has become one of the most dynamic fields of science since the first volume of Progress in Optics was published, forty years ago.
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 240 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.
