Información de la editorial

Introduction to Nonimaging Optics covers the theoretical foundations and design methods of nonimaging optics, as well as key concepts from related fields. This fully updated, revised, and expanded Second Edition:

Features a new and intuitive introduction with a basic description of the advantages of nonimaging optics
Adds new chapters on wavefronts for a prescribed output (irradiance or intensity), infinitesimal tendue optics (generalization of the aplanatic optics), and Khler optics and color mixing
Incorporates new material on the simultaneous multiple surface (SMS) design method in 3-D, integral invariants, and tendue 2-D
Contains 21 chapters, 24 fully worked and several other examples, and 1,000+ illustrations, including photos of real devices
Addresses applications ranging from solar energy concentration to illumination engineering

Introduction to Nonimaging Optics, Second Edition invites newcomers to explore the growing field of nonimaging optics, while providing seasoned veterans with an extensive reference book.

Acerca del autor

Julio Chaves completed his undergraduate studies in physics engineering at the Higher Technical Institute, Technical University of Lisbon, Portugal in 1995. He received his Ph.D in physics from the same institute. Dr. Chaves did postgraduate work at the Solar Energy Institute, Technical University of Madrid, Spain in 2002, and in 2003, he joined Light Prescriptions Innovators (LPI), LLC, Altadena, California, USA. In 2006, he moved back to Madrid, Spain, and has been working with LPI since. Dr. Chaves developed the new concepts of stepped flow-line optics and ideal light confinement by caustics (caustics as flow lines). He is the co-inventor of several patents and the coauthor of many papers in the field of nonimaging optics. He also participated in the early development of the simultaneous multiple surface design method in three-dimensional geometry.
