Download or read book Electromagnetic Resonances in Nonlinear Optics written by Michel Neviere and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2000-09-20 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is devoted to the numerous phenomena arising from the interplay between electromagnetic resonances and nonlinear optical interactions. These resonances are associated with surface plasmas or guided waves, excited in nonlinear optical resonators such as prisms or grating couplers. Topics include rigorous theories of diffraction by gratings in nonlinear optics, presented in a form ready for numerical implementations; scattering the matrix description in nonlinear optics leading to the phenomological approach based on the use of poles and zeros and other behaviours.
