Handbook of Nonlinear Optics

By Richard L. Sutherland

Examines the fundamental principles and formulations of nonlinear optics (NLO). The work presents practical formulas for use in a variety of experimental and design situations, current applications of NLO to specific technical problems, device and materials data, and methods for characterizing new materials-supplying continuity in nomenclature and the use of physical units. It covers key elements of NLO, such as frequency conversion, optical parametric oscillators and amplifiers, nonlinear refraction and absorption, and simulated light scattering.
