This book brings together experts in the field who present materialon a number of important and growing topics including lighting,displays, solar concentrators. The first chapter provides anoverview of the field of nonimagin and illumination optics.Included in this chapter are terminology, units, definitions, anddescriptions of the optical components used in illuminationsystems. The next two chapters provide material within thetheoretical domain, including etendue, etendue squeezing, and theskew invariant. The remaining chapters focus on growingapplications.
This entire field of nonimaging optics is an evolving field, andthe editor plans to update the technological progress every two tothree years. The editor, John Koshel, is one of the mostprominent leading experts in this field, and he is the right expertto perform the task.
