Three experts in the field of thin-film optics present a detailed and self-contained theoretical study of planar multilayers and how they can be effectively exploited in both traditional and modern applications. Starting with a discussion of the relevant electromagnetic optics, the fundamental optical properties of multilayers are introduced using an electromagnetic approach based on a direct solving of Maxwell' s equations by Fourier transforms. This powerful approach is illustrated through the comprehensive description of two of the most important phenomena in multilayers, i. e. giant field enhancement in dielectric stacks and light scattering from thin-film optical filters. The same approach is extended to the description of the operation of planar microcavities and the balance of energy between radiated and trapped light. This book will be valuable to researchers, engineers and graduate students with interests in nanophotonics, optical telecommunications, observational astronomy and gravitational wave detection.
Claude Amra is Director of Research at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Institut Fresnel, which he co-founded. He has previously been Director of LOSCM and Deputy Scientific Director of the Institute of Systems and Engineering Sciences within CNRS. Michel Lequime is Emeritus Professor at Ecole Centrale Marseille, Institut Fresnel. He was Head of Division at BERTIN, led the Optical Thin Films Group at the Institut Fresnel, and served as Secretary to the French Optical Society. Myriam Zerrad is a Research Engineer at Aix-Marseille University, Institut Fresnel. She heads the Scattering Group and leads the LISA team at the Institut Fresnel.
