De la contraportada

Introduction to Information Optics, by Francis T. S. Yu, Suganda Jutamulia, and Shizhuo Yin, summarizes and reviews the latest advances in information optics. Written by experts in the field, the chapters cover a wide spectrum of topics including optics and information theory, parallel optical information, processing and computing, optical storage, fiber sensors, and optical display. In addition, four chapters are dedicated to optical communications. This book provides readers with a fundamental understanding of the role of optics in the current information technology revolution and demonstrates not only applications but also the physics and technology of optical storage and communications. Written at the senior undergraduate and first-year graduate level, it offers a valuable self-study and is an effective text for elective courses in optical information processing and communications. This book will also be of interest to electrical engineers, optical scientists, and applied physicists working in optical information processing and communications.

Key Features:
* A review of optical signal processing, computing, storage, and sensors
* Exercises at the end of each chapter
* Four chapters dedicated to broadband optical communications
* Applications of optical science to information technology
