    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Updating and adding significant new material, the new edition of this seminal work continues to highlight the development of fiber optic sensors and classic applications, while providing an overview of current methods for the construction of high-speed and high-capacity fiber sensor systems. In particular it updates information on the Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG), including its use for GPS guidance.  It also adds a chapter that introduces a new type of fiber grating fabricated by femtosecond laser irradiation, which offers improved sensing capability in harsh environments.  It also adds a new chapter on fiber optic chemical/biomedical sensors, a fast growing market.

    Long description:

    The need for both intrinsic and extrinsic fiber optic sensor technologies continues to grow. To meet the demands of this fast expanding applications-driven market, Fiber Optic Sensors, Second Edition presents both the latest advances in fiber optic sensor technology, such as the application of photonic crystal fibers to fiber optic gyroscopes, and recent application opportunities, including the use of fiber optic sensors as a minimally invasive medical treatment.

    The new edition of this seminal work highlights the development of fiber optic sensors, while providing an overview of current methods for the construction of high-speed and high-capacity fiber optic systems. Two new chapters cover topics such as femtosecond laser illumination inscription and the growing application sector of fiber optic chemical and biological sensors.

    Adding significant new material, the book continues to provide a progressive history of each sensor type as well as basic principles and fundamental building blocks for practical applications in the electrical aerospace, defense and manufacturing, smart structure, undersea surveillance, medical, and gas and oil industries.
