The European Photonics Industry Consortium (EPIC) has announced the publication of the second edition of Photonics Essentials by EPIC’s General Secretary Thomas Pearsall.
Photonics Essentials, published by McGraw-Hill Professional (ISBN I9780071629355) introduces the principles of photonic devices to a younger generation of students and engineers.
This textbook stresses hands-on measurements techniques common to all photonics devices with numerous worked examples of measurement and characterization problems. Filled with these real-world examples that feature commercially available instruments, this practice-based book enables readers to analyze, characterize and handle any kind of photonic device. The second edition is thoroughly revised and contains a new chapter on OLEDs for display and lighting applications.
The table of contents is:
Ch.1 Introduction
Ch.2 Electrons and Photons
Ch.3 Photodiodes
Ch.4 Electrical Response Time of Diodes
Ch.5 Photoconductivity
