<--( BOOK )------------------------------------------------------------------->
Since the early days of nonlinear optics in the 1960s, the field has expanded
dramatically, and is now a vast and vibrant field with countless technological
applications. Providing a gentle introduction to the principles of the subject,
this textbook is ideal for graduate students starting their research in this
exciting area. After basic ideas have been outlined, the book offers a thorough
analysis of second harmonic generation and related second-order processes,
before moving on to third-order effects, the nonlinear optics of short optical
pulses and coherent effects such as electromagnetically-induced transparency.
A simplified treatment of high harmonic generation is presented at the end.
More advanced topics, such as the linear and nonlinear optics of crystals,
the tensor nature of the nonlinear coefficients and their quantum mechanical
representation, are confined to specialist chapters so that readers can focus
on basic principles before tackling these more difficult aspects of the
subject.
