Glass I: Interaction with Electromagnetic Radiation e-bog

Treatise on Materials Science and Technology, Volume 12: Glass I: Interaction with Electromagnetic Radiation focuses on the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with glass. The book discusses the optical absorption of glasses; the photochromic glass; and the anomalous birefringence in oxide glasses. The text also describes the light scattering of glass; the resonance effects in glasses; as well as the dielectric characteristics of glass. Materials scientists, materials engineers, and graduate students taking related courses will find the book useful.
