About the Book: This revised edition, Advanced Nonlinear Optics, presents the physical principles of numerous laser-induced nonlinear optical effects and their applications in modern optics and photonics. Topics include second- and third-order frequency mixing, nonlinear refractive-index changes, self-focusing, stimulated scattering, phase-conjugation, coherent transients, multiphoton effects, optical bistability, fast/slow light, and nonlinear susceptibilities.
