Nonlinear Optics on Ferroic MaterialsAuthor(s): Manfred Fiebig\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, Germany\nImprint: Blackwell Verlag GmbH\nISBN-13: 9783527346325, 978-3527346325\nSynopsis\nNonlinear Optics on Ferroic Materials Covering the fruitful combination of nonlinear optics and ferroic materials! \n\nThe use of nonlinear optics for the study of ferroics, that is, magnetically, electrically or otherwise spontaneously ordered and switchable materials has witnessed a remarkable development since its inception with the invention of the laser in the 1960s. \n\nThis book on Nonlinear Optics on Ferroic Materials reviews and advances an overarching concept of ferroic order and its exploration by nonlinear-optical methods. In doing so, it brings together three fields of physics: symmetry, ferroic order, and nonlinear laser spectroscopy. It begins by introducing the fundamentals for each of these fields. The book then discusses how nonlinear optical studies help to reve.
