Optics for Materials ScientistsAuthor(s): Myeongkyu Lee\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Apple Academic Press Inc., Canada\nImprint: Apple Academic Press Inc.\nISBN-13: 9781774634400, 978-1774634400\nSynopsis\nThis new volume will help materials scientists and engineers fully comprehend the principles of optics and optical phenomena and effectively utilize them for the design and fabrication of optical materials and devices. Materials science is an interdisciplinary field at the intersection of various fields, such as metallurgy, ceramics, solid-state physics, chemistry, chemical engineering, and mechanical engineering. Thus, many physicists, chemists, and engineers also work in materials science. Many materials scientists generally do not have a strong background in optics, and this book aims to fill that gap.\n\nThe volume explains the fundamentals of optics legibly to nonspecialists and presents theoretical treatments for a variety of optical phenomena resulting from light-matter in.
