Tóm tắt

Topology in Optics: Tying light in knots (Second Edition) provides the background needed to understand a broad range of unexpected phenomenon and developments arising from topological effects in optics. Assuming only a background in physics at the advanced undergraduate level, it requires no prior familiarity with topology. Revised and expanded with two new chapters, Topological Photonics and Optical Knots and Links, this will be an invaluable reference for undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers and engineers in optics and related areas.
