Publisher's Synopsis
The main aim of this book is to introduce the concept of photonic instrumentation as applied in the measurement, sensing and metrological purposes. Further it provides insight of the concepts of photonic instrumentation as a system, system components required, and its corresponding applications. After brief introduction to instrumentation and photonics, it explains the optical principles and optical devices/systems. Discusses how the photonic signal can be processed in frequency and time domain, use of optical fiber technology in sensing of physical parameters, instrumentation systems based on surface plasmon resonance and photonic crystal followed by applications and future research areas.
