Overview
- Well-written, offers a comprehensive and detailed treatment of dielectric waveguides with emphasis on their applications in optical communications.
- The book that has been a basis about waveguides is the "Field Theory of Guided Waves", Collins (IEEE Press, 1990). However, dielectric waveguides were treated in just one chapter.
- This is a welcome reference for new researchers or for an advanced (graduate level) course on guided-wave optics and photonic systems.

About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The book is intended to cover the fundamentals of wave-guiding structures over the whole electromagnetic spectrum. … workers in the field, who employ exclusively numerical methods to treat their problems, would greatly profit reading this comprehensive text … . The coverage of subjects is ample, diversified, and many up to date arguments are treated. … very useful to researchers and students involved with optical communications photonics and applied electromagnetics. … researcher in the field should have this book in his/her personal library.” (Mario Bertolotti, Contemporary Physics, Vol. 52 (1), 2011)Authors and Affiliations
