OverviewIn recent years there have been exciting developments in techniques for producing multilayered structures of different materials, often with thicknesses as small as only a few atomic layers. These artificial structures, known as superlattices, can either be grown with the layers stacked in an alternating fashion (the periodic case) or according to some other well-defined mathematical rule (the quasiperiodic case). This book describes research on the excitations (or wave-like behavior) of these materials, with emphasis on how the material properties are coupled to photons (the quanta of the light or the electromagnetic radiation) to produce mixed? waves called polaritons. .Clear and comprehensive account of polaritons in multilayered structures.Covers both periodic and quasiperiodic superlattices.Careful attention to theoretical developments and tools.Invaluable guide for researchers in this field.Shows developments from the basics to advanced topics Full Product DetailsAuthor: Eudenilson L Albuquerque , Michael G Cottam (University of Western Ontario Univ. of Essex, England Univ. of Essex, England)Publisher: Elsevier Science & Technology Imprint: Elsevier Science & Technology ISBN: 9781281026354ISBN 10: 1281026352 Pages: 358 Publication Date: 01 January 2004 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Electronic book text Publisher's Status: Active Availability: Available To Order We have confirmation that this item is in stock with the supplier.
