An interdisciplinary introduction to the structural and scattering properties of complex photonic media, focusing on deterministic aperiodic structures and their conceptual roots in geometry and number theory. An essential tool for students at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level.
This book offers a clear and interdisciplinary introduction to the structural and scattering properties of complex photonic media, focusing on deterministic aperiodic structures and their conceptual roots in geometry and number theory. It integrates important results and recent developments into a coherent and physically consistent story, balanced between mathematical designs, scattering and optical theories, and engineering device applications. The book includes discussions of emerging device applications in metamaterials and nano-optics technology. Both academia and industry will find the book of interest as it develops the underlying physical and mathematical background in partnership with engineering applications, providing a perspective on both fundamental optical sciences and photonic device technology. Emphasizing the comprehension of physical concepts and their engineering implications over the more formal developments, this is an essential introduction to the stimulating and fast-growing field of aperiodic optics and complex photonics.

Luca Dal Negro is Full Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, a member of the Boston University Photonics Center, and he holds joint appointments in the Department of Physics and the Division of Materials Science at Boston University. He received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Trento, Italy. Professor Dal Negro is a fellow of the Optical Society of America (OSA). His research interests concern the behavior of electromagnetic fields in nanostructured materials and the engineering of complex photonic media.
