Using optics to present electromagnetic theory, Electromagnetic Principles of Integrated Optics is a radical departure from other texts and a unified and comprehensive introduction to the field of integrated optics. All the fundamental concepts and principles of guided wave optics are developed from Maxwell's equations. From this perspective, the study of the slab and rectangular dielectric waveguide replaces that of the parallel plate and rectangular mentalic waveguide, the optical fiber that of the coaxial transmission line, radiation losses that of conduction losses, and aperture diffraction that of antenna radiation. This complete guide gives you clear coverage of 2- and 3-dimensional optical waveguides, optical fibers, prism and dielectric waveguide couplers, waveguide filters, grating reflectors and optical spectrum analyzers. You will find new approaches to topics such as dielectric waveguides, radiation modes and WKB theory. Electromagnetic Principles of Integrated Optics is carefully structured so that all material is developed from first principles.
Sophisticated concepts such as the Goos-Haenchen shift, radiation modes, Bragg scattering of guided modes and optical fiber mode theory have a firm foundation and are made easily understandable. Problems and worked-out examples reinforce the material and are good for self-study. For reference, as a problem-solver, or for self-study. The book provides many of the concepts and mathematical tools necessary to analyze realworld guided wave optics problems.
