An Introduction to Integrated Optics

Recent progress in the field of integrated optics in Japanis reviewed. The research effort on planar guides, active integratedoptics, and microoptics is outlined and pertinent references aregiven.

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...

Introduction to special issue on adaptive optics for vision.

Introduction to Part Ii

In the following chapters we present the theory of bifurcations of dynamical systems with simple dynamics. It is difficult to over-emphasize the role of bifurcation theory in nonlinear dynamics the reason is quite simple: the methods of the theory of bifurcations comprise a working tool kit for the study of dynamical models. Besides, bifurcation theory provides a universal language to communica...
