Description
Summary:This book focuses on selected topics which are new and of fundamental importance in the application of active glasses in photonic devices. Most of the chapters deal with glasses under the action of higher electromagnetic fields, such as those produced by femtosecond lasers. They cover the creation and analysis of induced structures in glasses and some functional devices using active glasses. This book is designed for both graduate students and researchers in the field.
