Publisher's Synopsis
All set to become an essential textbook for students of this topic, this is the first detailed and self-contained introduction to numerical electromagnetics in the context of photonics. As such it discusses and compares the most important and widely spread computational methods in nanophotonics, backed by problems, both on the analytical and the numerical level, as well as additional online simulations. Authored by highly renowned researchers, this is of interest to both theoretical and experimental scientists.
