| Description: |
This didactic advanced textbook presents nonlinear optics in a rigorous and analytical way, from the historical background to matter quantization, Sine-Gordon solitons, cavity nonlinear optics, and weakly nonlinear chi(2) & chi(3) media. |
| Synopsis: |
Based on the author's extensive teaching experience and lecture notes, this textbook provides a substantially analytical rather than descriptive presentation of nonlinear optics. Divided into five parts, with most chapters corresponding to a two-hour lecture, the book begins with a unique account of the historical development from Kirchhoff's law for the black-body radiation to Planck's quantum hypothesis and Einstein's discovery of spontaneous emission - providing all the explicit proofs. The subsequent sections deal with matter quantization, ultrashort pulse propagation in 2-level media, cavity nonlinear optics, chi(2) and chi(3) media. For graduate and PhD students in nonlinear optics or photonics, while also representing a valuable reference for researchers in these fields. |
