Focusing on engineering methods as applied to photonic measurement, this book provides a thorough treatment of the application of photonic measurement. Coverage is given to the physics of photonic devices and systems, and both the advantages and limitations of the technology are highlighted. Basic optical principles are introduced and used to illustrate the importance of photonic measurement in a variety of industrial and scientific applications.
A comprehensive handbook in photonic sensors and their applications, covering the first principles of optics and moving on to discuss the full range of sensor application.
Practical treatment will prove valuable for those working in the design and realisation of photonic systems.
Bridges the gap between basic optics theory and applicable optical measurement devices.
Includes a comprehensive patent survey of the latest developments in engineering photonic measurement.
Discusses applications of photonic sensors in a variety of engineering environments. A valuable addition to the bookshelf of all researchers and engineers in fibre optics sensing, postgraduate students in this area and practising engineers working in optical communications, electronic, civil, aerospace and industrial engineering and biomedicine.
