Applied Photonics: An Introduction for Physicists and Engineers (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783031864568)

Dr. Mustafa Abushagur is a professor in the Department of Electrical and Microelectronic Engineering at the Rochester Institute of Technology. In 1984, he received his PhD in electrical engineering from the California Institute of Technology. He has over 35 years of experience teaching courses such as a Modern Optics for Engineers, Optoelectronics, Fourier Optics, Optical Fiber Communications, and Optical Information Processing. Dr. Abushagur's key research areas are nanophotonics, plasmonics, photonic microsystems, adaptive signal processing, optical MEMS, optical computing, optical communications, optical interconnects and fiber sensors. In 2002, Abushagur was the founding director of the PhD program in microsystems engineering at the Rochester Institute of Technology. He holds three patents, has published ninety-eight research papers, published a book on Fourier optics, and has been invited to write five book chapters. As a result of his significant contributions to the field ofoptics, the field of photonics, and for pioneering educational programs, Dr. Abushagur was named a fellow of the Optical Society of America and the International Society of Optics and Photonics (SPIE).
