Sommario/riassunto

Optical microcavities are structures that enable confinement of lightto microscale volumes. The universal importance of these structureshas made them indispensable to a wide range of fields.  This importantbook describes the many applications and the related physics,providing both a review and a tutorial of key subjects by leadingresearchers from each field.
