The Physics and Applications of Photorefractive Materials

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Photorefractive materials combine photoconductive and electro-optic properties. Nearly 2000 papers have been written about the subject in the last twenty years, and physicists and engineers are interested in the great variety of potential applications. This book summarizes all the advances in this field in a manner that provides both a good introduction for beginning students and a detailed account for more experienced researchers.
