The chemistry, physics, and electron energy structure of simple atoms, molecules, and ideal crystals are fairly well understood, predictable, and no longer considered overly complex. The linear and, in particular, nonlinear optical properties are more challenging. This book presents the most recent achievements in both fundamental science and applied developments in nonlinear optics related to solid surfaces and interfaces. Providing a vital bridge between classic (macroscopic) and quantum (microscopic) optics,

Nonlinear Optics of Surfaces and Nanostructures fills an important gap is this emerging field.
