Beschreibung:
Dr Xin-Hua Wang is a Research Fellow at the Photonics Research Laboratory, Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, University of Melbourne, Australia. He received his M.Sc. from Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, China, and his Ph.D in electrical and computer systems from Monash University, Australia. His research interests include nonlinear optics, fibre and waveguide devices, optical fibre communications, computation of electromagnetic fields, and applied mathematics.
This book provides researchers in nonlinear optical technologies with procedures and software for the investigation of the fundamental phenomena in nonlinear optical waveguide structures. A full vectorial electromagnetic formulation is adopted and the conditions under which simplification to a scalar formulation is possible are clearly indicated.
