Biography
Moriaki Wakaki is a professor in the Department of Optical and Imaging Science and Technology at Tokai University. Dr. Wakaki is the author/coauthor of over 100 scientific papers and a member of the Optical Society of America, the International Society for Optical Engineering, the Optical Society of Japan, the Laser Society of Japan, the Japan Spectroscopic Society, the Japan Society of Applied Physics, the Physical Society of Japan, the Surface Science of Japan, the Thermoelectric Society of Japan, the Carbon Society of Japan, the Japan Society of Plastic Surgery, and the Society of Advanced Science. His research interests include solid state physics, optoelectronics, laser medicine and biophotonics, and infrared astronomy.
"Optical Materials and Applications is intended for researchers in the field of optics. All necessary mathematical theories are presented in a concise way. The book provides a good balance of mathematical theories, experimental results and the application of typical optical materials in various subfields of optics. For example, the authors discuss ultraviolet, visible and infrared optics, nonlinear optics, solid state lasers, optical thin films and nanophotonics. At the end of each of the seven chapters there are substantial references. There is also a large and helpful index, which is very important for a book of this type."
