Review
"The book is a welcome addition to the field of photonic engineering and is highly recommended as a suitable text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in this area." Nicolaas Bloembergen, University of Arizona; Nobel Laureate, Physics, 1981
“Jia-Ming Liu has been thorough in his treatment of this complex subject...In all parts the treatment of the subject is comprehensive and mathematical, but also quite readable with a myriad of diagrams helping to illustrate the points made. The work is aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students looking to specialize in this field, but will be a useful text for any engineer dealing with these devices.”
Philip Bartholemew, IEE Communications Engineer
"This book is excellent."
Professor H. Hamam and Professor M. Guizani
“Liu offers a comprehensive treatment of photonic devices that are suitable for use in optical communications technology.”
