Introduction optical waveguide analysis. Solving Maxwell’s equations and the Schrodinger equation / Введение анализ оптических волноводов. Решение уравнений Максвелла и уравнения Шредингера

This book was originally published in Japanese in October 1998 with the intention of providing a straightforward presentation of the sophisticated techniques used in optical waveguide analyses. Apparently, we were successful because the Japanese version has been well accepted by students in undergraduate, postgraduate, and Ph.D. courses as well as by researchers at universities and colleges and by researchers and engineers in the private sector of the optoelectronics field. Since we did not want to change the fundamental presentation of the original, this English version is, except for the newly added optical fiber analyses and problems, essentially a direct translation of the Japanese version. <...>
