This book provides a comprehensive overview of the theoretical concepts and experimental applications of planar waveguides and other confined geometries, such as optical fibres. Covering a broad array of advanced topics, it begins with a sophisticated discussion of planar waveguide theory, and covers subjects including efficient production of planar waveguides, materials selection, nonlinear effects, and applications including species analytics down to single-molecule identification, and thermo-optical switching using planar waveguides. Written by specialists in the techniques and applications covered, this book will be a useful resource for advanced graduate students and researchers studying planar waveguides and optical fibers.

Prof. Gerd Marowsky is Director of the Laser Laboratorium Goettingen (LLG), and Professor, Department of Physics, University of Göttingen. He graduated in 1969 from the University of Goettingen, Germany with degrees in the fields of experimental and theoretical physics and mineralogy. He has made numerous scientific contributions to the general field of lasers and high-field interactions. Prof. Marowsky previously edited the Springer book "Excimer Laser Technology."
