Adjoint Topology Optimization Theory for Nano-Optics

The book focuses on the topology optimization method for nano-optics. Both principles and implementing practice have been addressed, with more weight placed on applications. This is achieved by providing an in-depth study on the major topic of topology optimization of dielectric and metal structures for nano-optics with extension to the surface structures for electromagnetics. The comprehensive and systematic treatment of practical issues in topology optimization for nano-optics is one of the major features of the book, which is particularly suited for readers who are interested to learn practical solutions in topology optimization. The book can benefit researchers, engineers, and graduate students in the fields of structural optimization, nano-optics, wave optics, electromagnetics, etc.

Addresses topology optimization for nano-optics both in theory and in practice Studies inverse design of structures for nano-optics, numerical implementation, and numerical tests Provides in-depth treatment of several cases on both topology optimization of dielectric and metal
