Slow light : science and applications /
One of the Top Selling Physics Books according to YBP Library ServicesThe exotic effects of slow light have been widely observed in the laboratory. However, current literature fails to explore the wider field of slow light in photonic structures and optical fibers. Reflecting recent research, Slow L...
