Optical nonlinearity in thin films at low-intensity light -- -- 9. Optical nonlinearity in multilayer structures -- -- Bibliography -- -- IndexIn this book new methods of study of the linear and nonlinear optical properties of thin films are presented. These techniques are based on the principles of the spatial Fourier spectroscopy of the light beam reflected from a prism-coupling device with the tunnel excitation of guided lightmodes in thin-film structures. Measurement techniques of determination of the absorption coefficient, refractive index and thickness of the dielectric, semiconductor or metallic films are considered. This book is highly recommended for specialists in the fields of integrated and thin film optics and for graduated students in related specialties. There are new techniques of measurement of thin-film parameters statedElectronic reproduction.Amsterdam :Elsevier Science & Technology,2007.Mode of access: World Wide Web.System requirements: Web browser.Title from title screen (viewed on July 25, 2007).Access may be restricted to users at subscribing institutionsThin filmsSpectraThin filmsOptical propertiesCouches mincesSpectreCouches mincesPropriétés optiquesElectronic books.localOriginal01208851589780120885152(OCoLC)63127460Referexhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780120885152An electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information.b1365279503-03-2224-01-08991003233999707536Waveguide spectroscopy of thin films1212850UNISALENTOle02624-01-08m@ -engne 00
