Breif Introduction: L:XC
The great interest in photonic crystals and their applications in the last 15 years is being expressed in the publishing of a large number of monographs, collections, textbooks and tutorials, where existing knowledge concerning operation principles of photonic crystal devices and microstructured fibers, their mathematical description, well-known and novel applications of such technologies in photonics and optical communications are presented. They challenges authors of new books to cover the gaps still existing in the literature and highlight and popularize of already known material in a new and original manner. }\J2?Et{
