Focus issue introduction: nonlinear optics

Focus issue introduction: nonlinear optics 2013.

Nonlinear Optics has continued to develop over the last few years at an extremely fast pace, with significant advances being reported in nonlinear optical metamaterials, optical signal processing, quantum optics, nonlinear optics at subwavelength scale, and biophotonics. These exciting new developments have generated significant potential for a broad spectrum of technological applications in wh...

Introduction to Focus Issue: nonlinear and stochastic physics in biology.

Frank Moss was a leading figure in the study of nonlinear and stochastic processes in biological systems. His work, particularly in the area of stochastic resonance, has been highly influential to the interdisciplinary scientific community. This Focus Issue pays tribute to Moss with articles that describe the most recent advances in the field he helped to create. In this Introduction, we review...

Introduction to focus issue: Nonlinear dynamics for planet Earth.

Acousto-Optics: introduction to the feature issue.

This Acousto-Optics feature celebrates the scientific careers of two remarkable scientists, Antoni Sliwinski and Adrian Korpel. The feature includes original papers based on a representative selection of topics that were presented at the Tenth Spring School on Acousto-Optics held in Poland in May 2008.

Adaptive optics: introduction to the feature issue.

This Applied Optics feature issue is a companion to the Journal of the Optical Society of America A feature issue on the same topic. The feature highlights the expansion of adaptive optics to different applications as well as its development to routine applications brought about because of significant advances in component technologies. © 2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 010.0010, 01...
