Nonlinear Fiber Optics (Optics and Photonics) 3rd Edition by Govind P. Agrawal (PDF)

Description

The Optical Society of America (OSA) and SPIE – The International Society for Optical Engineering have awarded Govind Agrawal with an honorable mention for the Joseph W. Goodman Book Writing Award for his work on Nonlinear Fiber Optics, 3rd edition.Nonlinear Fiber Optics, 3rd Edition, provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the nonlinear phenomena occurring inside optical fibers. It retains most of the material that appeared in the first edition, with the exception of Chapter 6, which is now devoted to the polarization effects relevant for light propagation in optical fibers. The contents include such important topics as self- and cross-phase modulation, stimulated Raman and Brillouin scattering, four-wave mixing, modulation instability, and optical solutons. A proper understanding of these topics is essential for scientists and engineers interested in various aspects of lightwave technology. Such an ambitious objective increased the size of the book to the extent that it was necessary to create a separate but complimentary book, Applications of Nonlinear Fiber Optics, which is devoted to applications in the domain of lightwave technology. This revised edition of Nonlinear Fiber Optics should serve well the needs of the scientific community including graduate students in Optics, Physics, and Electrical Engineering, engineers in the optical communication industry, and scientists working in fiber optics and nonlinear optics.Only book dealing with Nonlinear Fiber OpticsComprehensive up-to-date coverage of the entire fieldProblems at the end of each chapter suitable for a courseFocus on fundamental aspectsCan be used by graduate students doing research in or taking courses in nonlinear optics and optical communications

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I’m absolutly sure that everyone can find something useful in this book, no matter who you are – a novice in this subject or well experienced researcher in optics.This book is also useful as a reference book on nonlinear effects. I very often find this book in hand.

⭐There are so many careless errors in the most important equations in this book. Some plots are wrong too. Some claims are ungrounded.Not for entry level. For expert who already knows this stuff and who can easily spot his errors. Otherwise you will be so confused and almost wanted to kill yourself after sitting there staring at those erroneous equations. Should be used as a reference only if you have decided to make fiber optics your life. I had my worst year in college reading this book. My professor also agrees somehow with me that this book needs to be revised.
