Akhlesh Lakhtakia, distinguished professor of engineering science and mechanics, and Russell Messier, professor of engineering science and mechanics, are the authors of a new book titled Sculptured Thin Films: Nanoengineered Morphology and Optics.

The text pairs the authors’ knowledge of thin-film morphology with the response characteristics of optical sculptured thin film (STF) devices, enabling scientists and technologists to design STF materials and devices for optical applications.

A CD containing Mathematica™ programs designed by Lakhtakia and Messier is included.

Suitable for graduate students and professionals in optics, the work can be purchased online at bookstore.spie.org.
