Waveguide Nonlinear-Optic Devices /

Nonlinear-optic (NLO) effects provide many device functions such as wavelength conversion and signal processing. The use of waveguides allows the implementation of efficient and compact devices. This book presents a systematic description of this area with an emphasis on devices that use ferroelectr...
