Mildren Rich P., Rabeau James R. Optical Engineering of Diamond

Wiley-VCH, 2013. — 537 p. — ISBN: 978-3-527-41102-3.This is the first comprehensive book on the engineering of diamond optical devices. Written by 39 experts in the field, it gives readers an up-to-date review of the properties of optical quality synthetic diamond (single crystal and nanodiamond) and the nascent field of diamond optical device engineering. Application areas covered in detail in this book include quantum information processing, high performance lasers and light sources, and bioimaging. It provides scientists, engineers and physicists with a valuable and practical resource for the design and development of diamond-based optical devices.Intrinsic Optical Properties of Diamond
