Nonlinear Optical Materials and Devices for Applications in Information Technology Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute, Erice, Sicily,

Nonlinear Optical Materials and Devices for Applications in Information Technology takes the reader from fundamental interactions of laser light in materials to the latest developments of digital optical information processing. The book emphasises nonlinear optical interactions in bulk and low-dimensional semiconductors, liquid crystals and optical fibres. After establishing the basic laser--material interactions in these materials, it goes on to assess applications in soliton propagation, integrated optics, smart pixel arrays and digital optical computing.Miller, A. is the author of 'Nonlinear Optical Materials and Devices for Applications in Information Technology Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute, Erice, Sicily,' with ISBN 9780792334576 and ISBN 0792334574.
