  blocks for the fabrication of optical devices. It is feasible that, eventually, the microfibers can be assembled into complex multi-functional low-loss photonic circuits. At present, the simplest devices composed of microfibers have been demonstrated experimentally and/or considered theoretically...
• Liquid Crystals - Preface
  important addition is a quantitative discussion of the optical properties and fundamentals of one-dimensional photonic crystal band structures. Dispersion is added to fill in an important gap in most treatments of cholesteric liquid crystals. In Chapter 6, we explore the fundamentals of liquid crystals...

  . "They'll be spectaculah," he says in his native Boston accent. But for now, Novalux is focusing on pump lasers - a type of semiconductor laser about half the size of a AA battery, which supplies photonic power for amplifiers, relaying optical data hundreds of miles along fiber lines. To understand how...
