{"product_id":"9781783265350","title":"Birefringent Thin Films And Polarizing Elements (2Nd Edition)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBirefringent Thin Films and Polarizing Elements (2nd Edition) includes the significant advances that have been made since the first book on tilted-columnar films was published. The major discovery of serial bideposition has led to a normal-columnar nanostructure with enhanced birefringence and in turn to nanoengineered handed films with properties matching the left-circular reflectors of scarab beetles. A second version of the Matlab software that accompanies the book includes algorithms for computing material, electromagnetic and optical properties of isotropic, birefringent and chiral films. A set of numerical and experimental examples chosen to illustrate and generate interest in these new fields will be of interest to graduate students and to researchers in optics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Imperial College Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47042849767664,"sku":"9781783265350","price":148.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783265350_p0.jpg?v=1772546739","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783265350","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
