Non-Linear Pulses in Integrated and Waveguide Optics - Shvartsburg, A. B. (Professor, Central Design Bureau for Unique Instrumentation, Professor, Central Design Bureau for Unique Instrumentation, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow)

This introduction to a field of applied physics on the frontier between integrated optics and non-linear wave dynamics deals with third-order non-linear optical phenomena in layered structures, guiding interfaces and channel waveguides. Energy dependent periodicity, gyrotropy, reflection, mode conversion and non-reciprocity are all explored.
