Computational Photonics

Beschreibung

This book explores the state-of-the art in computationalmodelling techniques for photonic devices In this book, the author provides a comprehensive coverage ofmodern numerical modelling techniques for designing photonicdevices for use in modern optical telecommunications systems. Inaddition the book presents the state-of-the-art in computationalphotonics techniques, covering methods such as full-vectorialfinite-element beam propagation, bidirectional beam propagation,complex-envelope alternative direction implicit finite differencetime domain, multiresolution time domain, and finite volume timedomain. The book guides the reader through the concepts ofmodelling, analysing, designing and optimising the performance of awide range of photonic devices by building their own numerical codeusing these methods. Key Features: * Provides a thorough presentation of the state-of-the art incomputational modelling techniques for photonics * Contains broad coverage of both frequency- and time-domaintechniques to suit a wide range of photonic devices * Reviews existing commercial software packages forphotonics * Presents the advantages and disadvantages of the differentmodelling techniques as well as their suitability for variousphotonic devices * Shows the reader how to model, analyse, design and optimise theperformance of a wide range of photonic devices by building theirown numerical code using these methods * Accompanying website contains the numerical examplesrepresenting the numerical techniques in this book, as well asseveral design examples (http://www.wiley.com/go/obayya_computational) This book will serve as an invaluable reference for researchers,optical telecommunications engineers, engineers in the photonicsindustry. PhD and MSc students undertaking courses in the areas ofphotonics and optical telecommunications will also find this bookof interest.
