À propos de la quatrième de couverture

The complete introduction to optoelectronics for every technical professional.

  • A complete, accessible introduction to electro-optics applications, principles, and theory
  • Essential concepts of optics, electricity, magnetism, transmission lines, and electromagnetism
  • Covers every key component of electro-optic systems
  • Includes coverage of signal processing and fiber optics
  • Contains 15 practical, hands-on laboratory experiences and applications

Optoelectronics technologies are at the heart of the communications revolution, and are increasingly central to other fields as well. Applications In Electro-Optics offers a complete, accessible introduction to the key principles and theories underlying optoelectronics. It combines an easy-to-understand tutorial with extensive examples, sample problems, wide-ranging applications coverage, and 15 hands-on laboratory experiences ― ranging from He-Ne lasers to linear displacement transducers. Coverage includes:

  • Essential background for understanding electro-optics: electromagnetism, transmission lines, electric/magnetic fields, capacitors, resistors, potentials, current, magnetic flux, frequency, wavelength, impedance, and Maxwell's equations
  • Elements of optoelectronic systems: lenses, mirrors, prisms, beam splitters, lasers, semiconductors, diodes, LEDs, liquid crystals, resonators, multiplexers, and photo-detectors
  • A detailed introduction to fiber optics, including key fiber characteristics and causes of signal loss
  • Essential coverage of signal processing found in no other book on optoelectronics
  • Diffraction, index of refraction, interferometers, filters, and numerical aperture

With the rapid growth in optoelectronics applications, a broad understanding of the field is essential to more working engineers, and students need to master its fundamentals sooner than ever before. Applications in Electro-Optics is the lucid, application-focused tutorial both professionals and students have been searching for.
