Illumination Engineering: Design with Nonimaging Optics (Hardcover)

This book brings together experts in the field who present material on a number of important and growing topics including lighting, displays, solar concentrators. The first chapter provides an overview of the field of nonimagin and illumination optics. Included in this chapter are terminology, units, definitions, and descriptions of the optical components used in illumination systems. The next two chapters provide material within the theoretical domain, including etendue, etendue squeezing, and the skew invariant. The remaining chapters focus on growing applications.

This entire field of nonimaging optics is an evolving field, and the editor plans to update the technological progress every two to three years. The editor, John Koshel, is one of the most prominent leading experts in this field, and he is the right expert to perform the task.

這本書匯集了該領域的專家，他們介紹了一些重要且不斷發展的主題，包括照明、顯示器和太陽能聚光器。第一章概述了非成像和照明光學領域。該章節包括術語、單位、定義以及照明系統中使用的光學元件的描述。接下來的兩章在理論領域提供了相關材料，包括光通量、光通量壓縮和斜率不變性。其餘章節則聚焦於不斷發展的應用領域。

整個非成像光學領域是一個不斷演進的領域，編輯計劃每兩到三年更新技術進展。編輯John Koshel是該領域最著名的專家之一，他是執行這項任務的合適專家。
