Optical Information Processing: Systems, Materials, And Devices

摘要

Optical information processing is a title given to a wide range of optical system technologies aimed at providing a solution to the ever-growing need for higher throughput in information processing. A particularly important requirement that often accompanies the general need for increased data pro cessing throughput is that such systems be constrained in their size, complexity, and power requirements. Such constraints are typical of airborne, space-based, and robot systems.
