Handbook of Optomechanical Engineering

This comprehensive handbook covers all major aspects of optomechanical engineering - from conceptual design to fabrication and integration of complex optical systems. The practical information within is ideal for optical and optomechanical engineers and scientists involved in the design, development and integration of modern optical systems for commercial, space, and military applications. Charts, tables, figures, and photos augment this already impressive text. Fully revised, this new edition will include 4 new chapters including plastic optics, fracture mechanics of glass and ceramic materials, optomechanical constraint equations, and systems engineering of optomechanical design.
