Review
..."essential reading for all those involved in the design, manufacture and application of optical coatings. a valuable addition to many bookshelves." -- Materials World, September 2001 .." continues to be a very practical guide." -- ASLIB Book Guide "The third edition is no less rich and includes expanded references and information on many advances in design and technology since the second edition was published in 1986 . . . [it] is a must-have addition to the library of any optical thin-film theorist or practitioner. It provides extensive methods to use in achieving desired optical performance for a broad range of coating types and extensive references for one to use in delving deeper into these topics." -- Dale E Morton, Denton Vacuum, LLC, in SVC News "It is obvious from the details of his career that Angus knows more about optical coatings, both in terms of design and of fabrication than most of us put together. It is therefore quite expected that I feel free to state that, in my opinion, this book is a necessity, rather on par with having the use of a coating facility, a good coating programme and a fast computer, for anybody in the field of thin-film optical coatings and filters. Therefore, if you are new in this field, your first priority should be to make sure that you have the undivided use of a copy of this book. . . All in all, the book is a good statement of the state of the art of thin-film deposition theory and practice at the turn of the millenium." -- Roger M Wood in Elsevier
Product Description
First published in 1969, Thin Film Optical Filters still serves as the major reference and textbook in the field. This third edition provides a unified treatment of the design, manufacture, performance, and application of optical thin films. It includes the mathematics necessary for readers to carry out thin-film calculations and contains extensive reference to the original literature. The coverage of optical filters includes antireflection and high-reflectance coatings. This is a comprehensive introduction to thin-film optical filters written for professionals in industry and those entering the field. It also provides a solid foundation for students in appropriate graduate courses.
