Engineering Optics is a book for students who want to apply their knowledge of optics to engineering problems, as well as for engineering students who want to acquire the basic principles of optics. It covers such important topics as optical signal processing, holography, tomography, holographic radars, fiber optical communication, electro- and acousto-optic devices, and integrated optics (including optical bistability). As a basis for understanding these topics, the first few chapters give easy-to-follow explanations of diffraction theory, Fourier transforms, and geometrical optics. Practical examples, such as the video disk, the Fresnel zone plate, and many more, appear throughout the text, together with numerous solved exercises. There is an entirely new section in this updated edition on 3-D imaging.

Provides a particularly good discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media (i.e., fibers).* The only book that treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics.* A careful and thorough presentation of the topics that make it well suited for self-study.* Includes numerous figures, problems and worked-out solutions.* Discusses all the topics essential to modern optical communication systems including optical fibers, quantum electronics, optical amplifiers, and lasers among others.* Concludes with a chapter that applies the design skills developed throughout the book to realistic problems in fiber optic communication systems.* Heavily illustrated with over 300 figures specially formatted to aid in comprehension.

Volume I:* Provides a particularly good discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media* Only book that treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics* Careful and thorough presentation of the topics that makes it well suited for courses and self study* Includes numerous problems and solutionsVolume II:* Provides a particularly good discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media (i.e., fibers)* the only book that treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics.* A careful and thorough presentation of the topics that make it well suited for self-study. It includes numerous problems and worked out solutions

Deals with photonics in free space and special media such as anisotropic crystals.* Covers all important topics from Fourier optics, such as the properties of lenses, optical image processing, and holography to the Gaussian beam, light propagation in anisotropic media, external field effects, polarization of light and its major applications.* The book is self-contained and is suitable as a textbook for a two-semester course.* Provides a particularly good discussion of the electromagnetics of light in bounded media.* Only book that treats the two complementary topics, fiber and integrated optics.* Careful and thorough presentation of the topics that makes it well suited for courses and self study.* Includes numerous figures, problems and worked-out solutions.* Heavily illustrated with over 400 figures specially formatted to aid in comprehension.

The expanded 4th edition of this classic optics text is aimed at those wishing to apply their knowledge of optics to engineering problems, and provides a sound introduction to the basic principles of optics for engineering students.
