Thin Film Optical Filters, 3rd Edition
Editorial Reviews
Review
...essential reading for all those involved in the design, manufacture and application of optical coatings. … a valuable addition to many bookshelves.
-- Materials World, September 2001
.. continues to be a very practical guide.
-- ASLIB Book Guide
The third edition is no less rich and includes expanded references and information on many advances in design and technology since the second edition was published in 1986 . . . [it] is a must-have addition to the library of any optical thin-film theorist or practitioner. It provides extensive methods to use in achieving desired optical performance for a broad range of coating types and extensive references for one to use in delving deeper into these topics.
-- Dale E Morton, Denton Vacuum, LLC, in SVC News
It is obvious from the details of his career that Angus knows more about optical coatings, both in terms of design and of fabrication than most of us put together. It is therefore quite expected that I feel free to state that, in my opinion, this book is a necessity, rather on par with having the use of a coating facility, a good coating programme and a fast computer, for anybody in the field of thin-film optical coatings and filters. Therefore, if you are new in this field, your first priority should be to make sure that you have the undivided use of a copy of this book. . . All in all, the book is a good statement of the state of the art of thin-film deposition theory and practice at the turn of the millenium.

Book Description
This is a comprehensive introduction to thin-film
optical filters written for professionals in industry
and those entering the field. It also provides a
solid foundation for students on appropriate
graduate courses.
It provides a unified treatment of the design,
manufacture, performance and application of
optical thin films. It includes the mathematics
necessary for the reader / user to carry out
thin-film calculations. Contains extensive
reference to the original literature. The coverage
of optical filters includes antireflection and
high-reflectance coatings.
Readership
Written for all users of optical coatings as an
introduction and reference. For people working in
industry, particularly optical system and
component manufacturers; researchers in
physics, and engineering departments
investigating the growth, properties and
applications of thin films.
