Publisher's Synopsis
Since the first edition of the Handbook of Microwave and Optical Components was published more than a decade ago, numerous changes have taken place in the microwave and optical arena mainly due to rapid technological developments in this field. Keeping pace with this development, the Handbook of Optical Components and Engineering expands and updates the optical content of the first edition to provide the most comprehensive treatment of optical technology ever assembled. This invaluable resource provides a wealth of essential principles, methods, design information, and references for today′s complex and rapidly changing field of optical engineering. New chapters include: "Optical Filters," "Wavelength Division Multiplexers and Demultiplexers," "Optical Amplifiers," and "Optical Attenuators, Isolators, Circulators, and Polarizers."
". . . Offers an exhaustive, and almost certainly complete, treatment of microwave and optical engineering principles." Elektor Electronics
