Optical devices are employed in an ever-increasing range of applications, from simple lenses to complex fibre-optic communication networks. This book provides a detailed introduction to modern optical engineering, covering the fundamental concepts as well as practical techniques and applications. Basic optical principles are presented, particularly reflection, refraction, aberrations, diffraction and interference. Building on this foundation, a wide variety of optical devices and processes are then discussed, including simple optical instruments, photodetectors, spatial light modulators, holography and lasers. Two chapters are devoted to linear system transforms and signal processing, and the book concludes with a chapter on fibre optics. The book contains many worked examples and over 250 problems (solutions manual for instructors available from the publishers). It will be invaluable to electrical engineering and physics undergraduates taking courses in optical engineering, photonics, and electro-optics.

Industry Reviews

' ... this textbook is a worthy successor to the first edition, and possibly the best text a university could choose'. Optics and Photonics News ' ... this is an excellent book, and is wholeheartedly recommended.' Chris Creasy, Measurement Science and Technology ' ... a good starting point for the undergraduate students in applications of optics.' Kishan Dholakia, Contemporary Physics 'The style of presentation ... is so clear and ... the subject matter is presented in such a sequence that I found myself drawn into the book ... In summary, this is an enjoyable and well-presented book which addresses a topic of considerable interest and importance within the optics community.' Optics and Lasers in Engineering '... a good first overview'. International Commission on Illumination
